Yehay - mine are just starting to flower  ;D 
7 of them outside & 11 indoors on various windowsills.  Still no polytunnel yet  :innocent:
Thought I'd better start feeding them now, so been busy doing all the toms, aubergines & peppers - then decided to feed the roses, which are just starting to open.  Now it's raining again  :gloomy:   ::)

We have a couple with flowers now, yay! But my 5 year old planted some freebies from Dolmio (a vain attempt to get her to eat tomatoes) and they are about 1cm now with one leaf  ;D

YAY!! At last I feel I've caught up a bit. Here are our tomatoes and a couple of the cucumbers.


The toms are starting to flower in big bunches and a couple of the cucumbers have got little buds with baby cukes behind them.


Everything is growing very fast in the polytunnel. The nicotiana is going MAD!!!


I can barely keep up with the pruning. I love it in there. :love: :love:
