Lots of rain, roads flooded and small lakes forming in all the fields around where I live.
Lovely cherry tomato salads for work lunch straight from the garden with another cucumber from the crop – very nice, sweet tasty.

I have noticed though that the stand up vegetable tubs do dry out quickly so I have to keep a close eye on them.

There are also at least another 20 smaller cucumbers on the 3 plants in my 45cm tub. Next year I may have double the plants if possible because they seem to be doing really well in the tubs.

I just did another bit of harvesting again and my count today was 88 tomatoes and 2 huge cucumbers.
The heritage tomatoes are a bit of a hit and miss unfortunately – lots of worm holes and mush but a few are still hanging in there.

The tommy toe tomatoes are doing great. I had a huge heavy crop and it’s still growing – so much that I need to fold the plant over to let it run on a trellis for support.

Happy harvesting and enjoy the bounty!
