After work I went to the plot to sow the first mustard. I raked and watered Bed 4 and half of Bed 2 and broadcast the seed. In 7-10 days we’ll know if this green manure plan might work or not.

I harvested the first four pumpkins and brought them home. I’ve left 2 and 4 in place with their small green companions for now. I’ll do a big photo and weights when everything has been harvested.

L-R:
#6 – probably the best; one of the two centre latecomers
#1 – with a few little holes, which don’t seem to be a problem as they’re hard inside
# 5 – has a light green patch on the other side, which needs to ripen
# 3 – is a bit flat on one side from growing on its side
