terryd 8,401 Posted July 6, 2013 Report Share Posted July 6, 2013 Sowed a couple of rows of Dwarf French beans this morning Cabbages are looking very healthy and pest free so far under the netting My mate on the allotment who gave me these plants told me these where courgettes but this looks like a marrow ? Surprising how quick things grow in about 6 weeks from this to this 8 yards left to dig I have sliced turf off and I will be glad to get it done 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
