With veg in both green house and outside beds growing well, there is a good supply of a large variety of vegetables to eat, enough to make soup and veg dish in every meal.

Pull out Daikon and beetroot one every few days, sweet and crunchy, replanted with parsnip in the space.
Runner bean, climbing bean, French bean and
