Spuds with radishes on top. Planted 8 Blue Danube here today:
Rhubarb (flowering and not looking especially well), spuds and radishes:
If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -
Herbs:
Gooseberries:
Another 6 Blue Danube planted in the bags today (I wasn't going to bother with bags this year but I had lots of seed potatoes):

My blue danube went in this week as well. Bit late really, but even if they get blight the tubers will survive apparently. If they tuber up by then :undecidedFreedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.0

I do need power in my shed and another freezer as a bit of a priority.
How am I doing so far?

All looking very good and productive btw.
To answer your question, I think you're doing very well and it's brave to show the world your attempts at what is more or less your first full year.
Of course the french beans will germinate

T&M didn't even send mine until 15 days after I ordered them, so that set me back quite a lot.

I don't think I'll starve. :rotfl:
This is the first year with all the beds. It's also a record of what goes wrong so I can do better next year.
And the French beans are inside. If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.0 -

Last year, my outside toms did better than the inside ones...and because they were in a courtyard they didn't get blight. Big YAY!!!If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.0
