2022 - How many you growing & picked?

I've finally planted them all out now. Some could do with a bit more room but I've planted those next to my autumn planted onions and early potatoes so they should get some room later on.

4 cucumbers, 2 beth alpha and 2 female F1 seeds I nicked from packet off my (London) daughter.

8 cougettes mix of green bush and striato

several butternut harrier, hercules, hunter (all F1) and 4 waltham.

2 Uchiki Kuri,

2 grey squash (a winter squash not sure of name. got the seeds off my Manchester daughter)

3 blue banana

5 pumpkins Marina di Chioggia (4) and Moscade de Provence (1)

3 tromba

8 melons arava (4) Kasakh Melon (3) and 1 pepito

It's one thing planting them out, quite another to look after them so I get a good crop. But with the BBC reporting the governor of the BoE:  "Bank governor in 'apocalyptic' warning over rising food prices" it may give me an added incentive.

A lot of these were from old packets but I find they generally have a long shelf life and good germination. However I used the last seeds from some packets this year.
