How late is this 'spring'?

reckon they're a month behind. I an digging up stray potatoes from last year which just show signs of growth. Normally any strays would be 6 inch high by now. It is late but things have a way of evening themselves out-we have had lack of spring by Portnoy

yellow spots on tomato leaves

Talkback: Rich pickings

(after a bumper crop!). Over the summer we've dug small sections at a time, taking out all the weed roots as we go. After a strip was dug over we immediately planted something in it - lettuces, potatoes, leeks, cabbages, etc. It's a long and arduous task by Lauren W
