What are you havesting

[Odsox]

At the moment; French beans, peas, mange tout peas, broad beans, carrots, summer cabbage*, broccoli, cauliflower, courgettes, new potatoes.
Salads; lettuces, salad potatoes, salad carrots and tomatoes.
Fruit; strawberries, gooseberries and rhubarb.

Everything is coming along nicely now including the grass unfortunately, which I seem to be mowing with increasing regularity.
Not complaining though, it will soon enough be winter again.

I'm having a go at making sauerkraut with excess cabbages, not sure if it will be edible or an addition to the compost bin, plus never having tries sauerkraut before, I don't even know if I like it.

First strawberries - from outside, not even a polytunnel

Hey,...if you don't like the 'kraut, don't necessarily chuck it---I have a lovely cake recipe that uses sauerkraut. Yes, really!

[Odsox]

Funnily enough, when I Googled "sauerkraut" to see how to make it I found quite a few weird recipes, like sauerkraut cookies and sauerkraut fudge.
I suppose sauerkraut cake is not a lot different to courgette cake and carrot cake, so I may well be asking you for the recipe in a week or two.

[Mustardseedmama]

I will supply it happily anytime!

Same here. My poor courgette plants were looking so healthy, then they were just skeletons. Same with my peas. It's been a perfect year for slugs.

At least someone is enjoying this rather cold damp weather!!! I saw in a newspaper yesterday that we are likely to have similar weather for the next 3 months, may have to rethink my whole veg patch. I can just tell that all the seedlings both veg and flowers are crying out for some sunshine (including myself!)

[chickenchargrill]

Ugh! Well, fingers crossed they're wrong. I'm just concentrating on filling the greenhouse. It may just be a cheap thing that'll only last this season, but so glad I bought it. My veg patch is a complete disaster area.

I really do sympathise.
You will definitely find your greenhouse is a life saver, any protection you can provide is a boon.
I bought a polytunnel 5 years ago after enduring a couple of dismal summers and found it sooo useful (which surprised me) that I got another one a couple of years later. Now I grow just about all my vegetables in there, all year round, and when I go in either one at the moment it's like walking into another world.
This year I lashed out and bought a course of nematodes to treat the slugs and that worked well too, it hasn't killed them all but it has severely reduced their numbers and of course it's a slow process for them to repopulate a polytunnel as they can only get in through the door.

At the moment I'm harvesting a little gem lettuce every day, beets, turnips, spring onions, carrots, courgettes, peas, broad beans, broccoli, new potatoes and soon my runner beans will start. I doubt if I could have grown any of those outside this year, especially the peas and beans, with all the gale force winds and damaging downpours we've had for the last three months.

Lettuces, new potatoes, zuchinni, and this morning I picked a five gallon bucket of green beans.
