What a boon our poly tunnel is. We have Carrots, Summer cabbage, and new potatoes all about three weeks earlier than normal. The hungry-gap has been bridged by these early crops. The cabbage (Hispi) have done the usual thing of all being ready at once, they are so good that we have munched our way through them having had cabbage at every meal for the last fortnight!
The carrots were sown at New year in our usual way into 1 litre deep pots and then planted out later.
The spuds were planted in March and have always looked very fit despite some frosty nights in April.
All these crops have to be cleared soon to make way for Tomatos - the plants are ready now.
