The observant will note that these puppies are 3 1/2 lb's each which should keep me in courgettey comestibles for a little while!
As for the rest of the plot, the cabbages now have hearts in them so should be ready to harvest later on this year. The tomatoes are still stubbornly refusing to turn red so I think I'll have to crop them and turn them into chutney if they don't pull their fingers out. The leek bed is also coming on great guns and looks set to produce a good crop in a month or two. Peppers? Well despite them being mollycoddled in the cold frame for about 6 months, the plants grew to a grand height of about 2" and didn't develop any peppers on them :-(. Looks like these may need a greenhouse to grow in this climate so won't bother with these next year.
