This week's array of salad leaves - american land cress, lemon balm, chives, 2 sorts of rocket, chinese cabbage and beetroot. I didn't pick any lettuce or spinach as I've planted them out into the garden and don't want to shock them too much.

picked this week
We've had glorious spring weather this week - Thursday was particularly warm, up to 17 degrees in the afternoon. Snowdrops and crocus are opening. The first daffodils won't be far behind. Walking up to the wood, I've seen leaves on hawthorns, flowers on sloes and anemone leaves unfurling.
Down on the allotment, the pigeons are being a nuisance and eating the brassica tops again. Hopefully netting thrown over the top will keep them away.
After a couple of weeks of no homegrown veg, this week's seems like a huge haul..
.. and I've also managed to put together a couple of platefuls of salad leaves from garden and greenhouse - rocket, beetroot leaves, chinese cabbage etc
