Harvesting more produce from the allotment

Hello again.

Today, I am pulling my Nazareth carrots up for Jimmy's Heaviest Carrot Growing Competition 🥕🥕🥕🥕

The pears are ready to be picked. I can't ask the tree to carry so much fruit before something breaks, so now is the time. I have harvested the complete tree and will be preserving them in jars in a light syrup. Something to enjoy throughout the winter.

The allotment plot keeps on giving and giving. Today, I am harvesting sweetcorn Incredible and Goldcrest. Next year, I will be growing a new variety called Damaun. Look it up.

I also pick a few tomatoes out of the greenhouse and touch Base on blossom end rot and what I use to combat it.

I then head out onto the plot for some more tomato picking of Roma VF. I discovered a couple of tomatoes, which have been nibbled. It's definitely not slugs, that's for sure, so I snip away the leaves, exposing the fruit, giving more airflow and light to the tomatoes. This might help against blight and take away the habitat the rat has been loving.

Thanks for watching and consider subscribing if you want to follow along on my gardening journey in 2025. It's never a dull day laugh.

Bye for now... Elaine from Allotmentjoy 😁👍
