Mild November

So far, November has been pretty mild, and the remaining crops have continued growing. The leeks look to have mostly recovered from the earlier leek moth, and are doing fairly well. Nothing hugebut reasonable. Hopefully they will put on a little more weight if the mild weather continues. The swedes are very poor really, just a few reasonably sized swedes and lots of very small ones. Pigeons have been attacking any spring cabbages which weren’t covered by wire. Onions and potatoes are storing well, there a few carrots in a box of soil, and a few beetroot left in the ground. Parsnips are dying down, but no frost so haven’t dug any yet. Planted out 20 cloves of supermarket garlic today, first time I’ve planted in autumn.
