Is the summer ever gonna come!

the caulis are growing - thank the lord
my pumpkins - hope to plant them out in two weeks

parsnips, parsnips everywhere and not a one to eat.............well not yet anyway!
the jalepenos have flowers - stu is happy
look - gardeners delight, growing OMG!
runners are running away
The veggie plot! looking good, now with leeks and cabbages as well! oh and the brussells for christmas
My sunflower is getting very big!

Yum yum pigs bum!! and they are mine all mine!!
My first ever sweet peas - arrrrrrrrr
The salad "coffin" is doing well with Rocket, Cut & Come again and Mizuna
Big sweetcorn & little sweetcorn - what a way to go!
The toms are growing & growing as well as the cucs! will they ever stop!
i cant believe how everything is growing, wow wee!! i am so excited - i cant wait for the caulis, this summer i am also gonna grow some Pak Choi, love the stuff.
Exciting stuff as tomorrow i am off to meet fellow "Grapes", Heywayne and Piskieinboots, we are meeting at a pub in Wendover and I will be taking some pics and putting them on the blog.
I dont know if i have put this before, but next year i am gonna use grow bags stood up for my toms are they are about to fall over, but it is not taking away from the fact that they are really really growing and i couldnt believe it when i saw the cherry toms on the gardeners delight!
The strawberries are tasting delicious and i cant understand why i ever bought them in tesco, i cant get enough of them, i so hope that more flowers come, as i want more and more.
One thing i cant understand is that the sweetcorn were planted at the same time and are in different pots, but the ones in the blue pot arent as bit as the one in the planter, i may start feeding just to see what happens, but none the less they are looking really good and i am so pleased.
I also think i have got rid of the snails in the garden, i dont see half as many and my veg is staying quite intact, so perhaps i have the sorted.
More posting soon and more pics of the veg as it is harvested, by the way, i have seen the beetroot growing and also the carrots are coming along great!
