A quick update on the vegetable growing progress from the allotment and polytunnel in early June. There has been a mini heatwave up here in the North Weast with the warmest and dryest weather I can remember. The veg are all growing well in the sunshine but could do with some rain to give them a drink. The peas, cabbages and potatoes are growing well in the heat but the lettuce are loving it and really flying. The onions are growing well and none are going to seed even in the dry hot weather we've had up here. In the polythunnel the giant onions are going well but it's been over 100F all week in there even with all the doors wide open. The French beans seem to love the heat and are going well now. So far so good. The dry weather has kept the slugs at bay too. Happy Gardening. Website :http://www.allotment-diaty.co.uk Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/Allotment-Diarycouk-119640048156011/
