Sweet corn
sweetcorn turns the typical yellow. Try squeezing one of the kernels with a fingernail. If the liquid inside is a milky colour, it's harvest time. If it's still watery, you're going to have to wait and hope for more warmth. Pick one if you are unsure.  Rush by Johntheeng

Tiny garlic, what to feed?
I have solent white, early purple & elephant in large containers. I think I was harvesting this time last year, but am guessing they are just very behind due to the recent cool weather.  I have scraped back a little compost & they are rather tiny by Lokelani
