Have picked it and eaten it. Had intended to photograph it first just to show off but simply couldn't resist it - looked at me all red and plump and - well its gone now. But more turning red as we speak!

You have to grow them in a greenhouse or frame to get really early ones Mr Woo. Welcome to the grapevine - there's loads of good advice here - and it's a scream too!Whoever plants a garden believes in the future.

Depends on what type you have as to when they crop but now is VERY early and I've been amazed at the size of fruits on mine this year - there's loads and they're swelling daily so I'm looking forward to them ripening later this month which is a good few weeks earlier than normal. I've got three varieties on the go and the later set aren't really doing much yet so hopefully I'll have a good long cropping period.
Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.
Which one are you and is it how you want to be?Comment

We had loads of strawberries ripening but i went into the poly tunnel this morning and noticed a very fat mouse and all the almost ready strawberries either gone or removed from the plants and nibbled
Have now declared war on the mice...........
