Marrow mountain...

Sigh. And the early tomatoes have blight (although the later ones, farther from the polytunnel door, seem clear so far).

Home now, all well (other than Mike coming down with a cold). Will catch up on email over the next day or so....

Slightly worryingly, just after coming in from picking veg I noticed a couple of big-but-minor blisters on my fingers. I did pull a couple of weeds (without gloves) while I was out there, but I'm now wondering which of them were noxious.... There was something unfamiliar with purple flowers. Hmm.

Normally I get small plug plants from friends who do the sowing thing. This year I have two plants that grew themselves from who-know's-what seed because they have nothing to do with me. And neither is in full sun, which may make a difference.

Ah, so they might be self-seeded, so not necessarily a good plant, or just plants that managed to overwinter, so are worn out. That makes more sense!

I will continue to report.
