The jungle in my greenhouse

Greenhouse

You go away for three days, and come back to find a jungle in your greenhouse. I can’t believe how much things changed over the bank holiday weekend.

The potatoes have gone mad; foliage and stalks all over the place. The leaves on the beans are turning into great parasols. The strawberries are getting taller and are still in full bloom, and the sunflowers are growing at a steady pace, if a little slower than I might have imagined.

The peppers and tomatoes, though, aren’t making so much progress as I’d hoped. I thought they might have been my main crop, but now I’m starting to wonder.
