Luscombe Street - Week 8 Update

It has continued to rain and rain and rain, so it has meant for a very easy time for me with looking after the plot!  Planting time has finished for a little while which means just waiting, tending and watching the plants continue to grow.  Not a huge amount to report this week as everything is continuing to grow.  The strange thing is that I haven't had much luck with lettuce this season as you can see in the photo below.  They just seem to be moving very slow, well yes actually everything is moving very slow, which I'm sure is just a feature of autumn and winter planting.  It will be interesting to see how things go next year.  I wonder whether the early to mid autumn planting has something to do with it?  Might mean I get things going a little earlier next year to ensure they have a fair bit of growth prior to the cold weather sinking in...
