Week 52+5 - Bed DD8

Some of the greens have suffered a bit through the cold weather we have had. We did not put up a polytunnel as we had planned, which would have really helped the lettuce in the foreground.

The mizuna is thriving and we have been harvesting continuously.

Several of the rocket plants are starting to bolt, something that normally happens in the summer, but is possibly due to the hard frosts, or simply because of the age of the plants - they generally only produce for a few months.

The Pak Choi is also bolting, probably due to the lack of protection.

The spinach is still producing leaves, but it looks a little ragged.

The chard plants are growing slowly.
