Our New Polytunnel Part 2: The Fruits of our Labours...
Salad from the polytunnel: cucumber, tomato, courgette flowers, baby courgettes- and that's not even the lettuce! (The olives were not home grown though) |
We're feeling really happy that our new polytunnel has turned out to be a worthwhile investment, and veg production is getting into full swing in there- just take a look:
Remember how it looked back in May? Now everything is so much taller! |
It's so handy to have lettuce and rocket available just feet from the kitchen! We also interplanted with beetroot- you can just see the red stalks. |
The cucumbers are starting to bear fruit quite prolifically. |
Helda and climbing French beans just love the warmth and shelter indoors! |
We even have a kadoo plant... |
...But the tomatoes steal the show every time. |
These beauties will be purple when ripe- can't wait! |
We have all sizes, from cherry and plum through to these Russian ones which are already as big as my fist. |
Impressive stuff - must be so handy to have in your back yard :)
