What we should be doing - June 2011

It's almost the end of June, and we still have hundreds of squash plants ready to be transplanted, but dare we say it, it's been a bit wet and cool over the last couple of weeks!!
But here we are in action, transplanting courgettes and sweetcorn a few weeks ago before the rain came, both these crops like a bit of sun, and the courgettes particularly dislike cold nights and windy days so aren't doing too well at the moment.

 For crops that we grow 3 rows to a bed, there will be a third person on the transplanter


Lovely, neat rows of transplaneted sweetcorn and courgettes

  1. If the courgette plants are struggling does that mean the crop will be later this year?
