Harvest Monday - 8th February 2016
Latest post from MARKSVEGPLOT – a blog about food and gardening in England”
The third and last of my PSB plants reached its peak this past week. This is “Early Purple Sprouting”.
PSB “Early Purple Sprouting” |
I harvested some really fine spears from it. They are the ones on the right in this photo below:
In this next photo you can see some of the spears just before cutting:
I also harvested some more spears from the “Red Spear” plant. They are the ones at lower Right here. They are much darker than the pale “Early Purple Sprouting” ones – but still not red!
I also got another batch of Brussels Sprouts. These ones are “Cromwell”:
They are quite small, and of course the outer leaves look a bit manky, but I’m sure they will be nice when prepared for cooking.
On Saturday I pulled up the last of my container-grown Leeks, the “Apollo” ones:
All I can say is that by this year’s standard they were “not bad”. Still a lot smaller than I would have liked, but considering that they were basically leftovers, they have done all right.
