    • Plums - a bit earlier than planned, but I have visiting fruit loving squirrel who had already nibbled about a third of them. Fingers crossed they'll continue to ripen a bit more indoors.
      It's not been a great year veg wise, but the plum tree was absolutely laden and seemed to have skipped the usual June drop this year.

        Definitely going to do melons again next year. Ive missed them this year.
        I live in a part of the UK with very mild winters. Please take this into account before thinking "if he is sowing those now...."

            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.

            • Lots of tomatoes and a cucumber.

              And when your back stops aching,
              And your hands begin to harden.
              You will find yourself a partner,
              In the glory of the garden.
