Until now we had grown some really nice tomato bushes, alas they are not very edible. Finally I spotted little tomato fruits on them.
The cucumbers are also finally producing, after we started putting in a much more intensive effort with the paint brush pollinating.
This week the chillies also finally fruited, and the celery is getting taller, and maybe almost ready for picking, as we don't think it will ever turn out like market bought celery.
Ready for harvest as we need it is rocket (which appeared at Midwinters Feast), pak choy is close, and basil which is always a nice addition to the kitchen.
Last week we seeded silverbeet, lots of new lettuce types, and eggplant.
Not bad considering that our hydro supplies didn't arrive so we are pretty much just improvising!
Big shout out to my hydro partner Louise!
