Today I harvested 2021

[ameno]

Blackberries, and a handful of autumn raspberries.
Lots and lots of achocha (two plants may have been too many).
And cut my first ripe squash. Not eating it yet, though. I've left it to cure in the sun for a week or so first, especially as it was very shaded where it was growing before (it's from the plant I planted in my compost bin, and because this fruit set pretty early, it was growing actually inside the compost bin).

[peanut]

Wild strawberries, toms and lots and lots of cucumbers

[Bren In Pots]

Mixed lettuce, basil, cucumber and raspberries.

[Mr Bones]

Rasps, apples, sweetcorn, carrots, courgettes, cukes, parsley, friggitello peppers, bell peppers, hot wax peppers, toms gladiolas and zinnias.

MelanieSW ^^^ that's a sympathy like, so disappointing

What I didn't harvest - the not quite ready marrow (my only one!) that someone has nicked from my allotment

[Bren In Pots]

Charlottes, Black cherry toms, Gardeners delight toms, radishes, mixed lettuce, mustard, Thyme, basil and oregano.

[ameno]

Oh, and I also dug up two more plants worth of Charlotte potatoes.

[Nicos]

One self seeded cucumber!
Its done better than the ones we intentionally grew which now have one 2cm cucumber on each

[ameno]

My first ripe tomatoes, from outdoors.
Also, more french beans, tenderstem broccoli, two small melons, some gladioli, and half a dozen jalapenos.

[Bren In Pots]

Earlier morning lettuce, radishes, toms and cuc.

[bramble]

Lots of tomatoes and a cucumber.

Definitely going to do melons again next year. Ive missed them this year.

I've been surprised by how well Emir have done for me, outside, in a fairly average summer. Assuming the last three ripen, I will have gotten 11 decent sized melons (average about 800g each) from three plants.
I'm also growing another variety recommended for outdoor growing, Collective Farm Woman, and although it has done okay, it's not nearly as impressive. The fruit are both smaller and fewer, and not as tasty, and the plants seem to be dying prematurely.
Next year I think I shall just grow six Emir plants instead.

My watermelons are coming along nicely, too. I just hope I can keep the fungus attacking the leaves at bay long enough for them to mature and ripen.

[Jungle Jane]

One mini cucumber & two tomatoes aranyalma & indigo cherry drop

[quanglewangle]

The rest of my onions, and another melon.

Definitely going to do melons again next year. Ive missed them this year.
