Dear Diary – 08.07.2021

Serious harvesting started. We had peas and purslane, spinach and radishes and lettuce so far, but now the bigger hauls are coming in. Kohlrabi, beet root, mangold, zucchinis (25 and counting so far), cucumbers, fennel. The tomatoes and other brassicas are sizing up, the pumpkins are taking over – as is their habit.

Main work in the garden is killing potato bugs, pruning tomatoes, weeding and re-planting for the winter harvest: Broccoli, cauliflower, more puntarelle and kohlrabi, more brussels sprouts and radishes, additional carrots.

Don’t have enough time for everything that needs to be done.
