Sweetcorn flop again!

As you can see my sweetcorn plants look great.... 

BUT.... here are the cobs. Hard as nails...

The 9 plants produced 10 cobs in all but all were the same as above. 

In previous years I have been over eager to harvest them and ended up with under ripe cobs. This year I was determined to leave them alone for as long as possible not realising that they can over ripen and become inedible. So no homegrown sweetcorn for us again this year. Maybe next year (third time lucky) I might get it right. 

The Grape Vine is doing well this year, it's nearly at the third wrung up. No grapes of course but it's still hanging on in there. 

Surprisingly courgettes are still producing. It's been a good crop this year from my 3 plants. The two in the veg bed did do better that the pot bound one. 

See veg report 2016 for more details on all veg grown this year......
