Potatoes, cucumbers, leeks, sweet corn, courgette, butternut squash, peas, runner beans, climbing french beans, sprouts, red onion, shallot, lettuce, radish, beetroot, carrot, spinach planted outside so far. I think we've used most of the space we have now. Tomatoes and peppers planted in greenhouse, another 8 tomatoes in pots to plant out.. More salad bits in seed trays. Oh and we've got 5 Okra plants. The three outside in a growbag are looking sad, and thinking of sad... something, I think a mole has, killed one cucumber.   

I suppose the main concern is water. We've got 12 x 200Litre butts joined together for the watering system and they are well under 1/4 full. 2 other butts we use to fill watering cans are empty. We can use mains water but try not to.
