Tue, 03 Jun 2008 13:57:02 GMT http://www.easy-vegetable-gardening.com/easy-vegetable-gardening.html The Asparagus is great - a real indulgence! Two weeks left until mid June for cutting. We are still eating leeks and chard from 2007/8. Globe Artichoke are ready to eat as too are small Little Gem and Lollo Roso lettuce - yum! The sown/ planted early crops of beetroot, potatoes, carrots, peas, shallots, garlic ... are well advanced and looking healthy. Now the risk of frosts has passed it's time for the curcubits (melon, courgette, outdoor cucumber and butternut squash) sown in April to be planted out in early June. So too can the dwarf french beans, climbing beans and sweetcorn that are growing well in my small greenhouse. New season brassicas (we like curly Kale and Purple sprouting broccoli and red cabbage and calabrese) have been sown in short rows and have emerged and will be grown for transplanting later. This spring has been a poor year for some seed germination; 50 for sweetcorn, 30 for beans and 0 pumkins, which will mean re-sowing is necessary. I'm still waiting for parsnips to emerge after a month. Sadly the unusual lovely hot sunny weather of April has been replaced by dull gloomy low cloud and rain of late -poor for one's spirits but good for growing I suppose! My first experiment with a true board edged raised bed has been constructed at much effort compared to the usual raised earth beds. It will be used for the next sowing of carrots.

Fri, 09 May 2008 11:31:47 GMT http://www.easy-vegetable-gardening-com/my-vegetable-garden.html My vegetable garden this spring (April 2008) We are still harvesting purple sprouting broccoli, leeks, parsnips and to our delight ... are just about to pick our first Asparagus of the year. So can look forward to 6 weeks of decadent living. The first beetroot, carrots and lettuce are sown, and the 3 beds of potatoes are planted with well chitted seed and ridged up. The shallots and garlic are growing well and red onions have emerged from seed - sadly I couldn't find any sets this year. Weeding is up to date - yes! The compost is being spread and this week I'm preparing beds for planting later with curcubits like melon, courgette, outdoor cucumber and butter nut squash, which are just being sown indoors. It is great to see well prepared healthy soil being gradually covered by spring plantings and a greening with fresh young vegetable crops.
