That's what growing your own is all about BUFFS. Swings and roundabouts. I've got flowers on some of my strawberries

I've been picking strawbs for a few weeks now - another 4 today. Brill.

we are still getting a big bowl of alpine strawbs weekly,and the french beans are growing again........

I have loads of strawberry flowers but the fruit keep being pinched by slugs and other things I suspect.
Lovely thought of raspberries and homemade icecream......Does it get any better?

Yum

I picked another pound of strawbs today, madness

**zazen999** · 27-09-2011, 07:27 PM

And still a tray of toms each and every day.....drowning in lovely toms

I've had a second crop of strawbs too. Crazy. Roses have flowered again as well.

Got a decent crop of late Autumn Bliss raspberries this year, which made up for a really poor early ones. Don't know about everyone else, but find late raspberries much tastier than earlies.

I have had a handful of my early raspberries bearing fruit again, but sweet they are not. They make my face dance as I eat them (I couldn't possibly let them go to waste!!)

They make you wink don't they?

I think the gods may be offering us some compensation with the weather this week !!

Strawbs flowering/fruiting here as well AND more flowers on the outside tomatoes. The pumpkins are still flowering and the one that started a couple of weeks ago which I thought might not have time to grow to a decent size and ripen, is now the size of a rugby ball. I also have more flowers coming on the Cobnut squashes and the Runner beans keep on going too

Also got some strawberries turning red to my surprise! Wish I had planted more raspberries though - they're lovely this year!

Tomatoes and tomatillos are still going as well - getting a colander full of tomatoes every two to three days!
