Thanks for all the posts. I have just been too busy with garden stuff to post. Pulled all te garlic this morning, pretty wet so I’ll get a nice picture in a few days. Diana that borage is huge, some chest high. All from a tiny seed. We ate some of the leaves in salads early on and I just tasted a flower, not bad but I don’t taste the lemon. A huge stalk fell over onto the grass, more like a tree. Cut up for compost and I put a bunch of the flower ends in a vase. Guided the butterkin squash vines over onto the empty garlic bed. Asparagus is all done except for a few here and there. Picked out first better buy tomato for a salad last night, with marinated chicken thigh meat on shishkabobs with onion and shishito. Our shishito plants are all heavily laden, we have never had so many. Also ate the last asparagus bunch and some brocoli. Lovely meal. It’s early on the rest, we did have a few pea pods in with out salad and some sliced radish, romaine lettuce and pak choi. All in all heavy production and we are very grateful.
