Mine's the same, JJB! I thought it was because I'd watered them early on a hot day and the leaves had burned, but maybe not. It's not because they're old, either, since I didn't sow them until early June -  - they're flowering and hopefully setting fruit - but our soil is quite poor so even with a good layer of compost on top that might not have been enough.

As per Mikey's tip about feeding, I'm going to sprinkle some alpaca poo around them to give them a boost!
How much veg and wildlife can I pack into a 6m x 8m garden in suburban Cambridge? Let’s find out!  Smile
