Luscombe Street Update - Week 18

I hadn't been out to the plot for two weeks, and as the weather has warmed up over that time, I was faced with a massive amount of new growth when I arrived!  The plot has just gone ape!

Purple sprouting broccoli everywhere, the carrots and rashes have grown about two inches, the broad beans are beginning to flower, and the spinach is going crazy!  Its so great to see that just a little bit of warmth and the plants just love it :)

I harvested so many veggies today - spinach, lettuce, coriander and radishes.  I will leave the broccoli until next weekend I think as it could do with a little bit more growth before I pick the first lot.
