Hi Steemers!
It has been a while since my last post - I've been a busy bee! I have been visiting and hosting friends and family in my free time which has been great fun but hasn't left any time for posting.
During this time I did manage to order some seeds online to kickstart my veggie patch this year. My wonderful and encouraging Mum helped me pick some interesting and healthy sounding choices, I am really looking forward to seeing what comes of them all.
My politunnel is doing well! The tomato and pepper plants from my previous post are still going strong, we have just put up a bamboo frame for the tomatoes as they are growing in height and need supporting. I am already seeing more tomatoes popping up, can't wait until it is all in full swing and I have bunches of cherry tomatoes to enjoy.
I am surprised and happy to say I finally have some purple sprouting broccoli coming through!! I was starting to give up on the plants as nothing seemed to be happening but I'm glad I waited.
My peppers are doing well and flowering but nothing much to show just yet. This week we had some stormy spells and a bunch of rain which brought temperatures down a bit, not sure the peppers were too happy about the chill but the whole garden appreciated the rainfall. Hoping for sunnier skies ahead to get my new seeds going!
As always please link me to your latest gardening posts as I would love to read them. Also if anyone recognises any of the seeds from my haul, or have grown them before do leave me a comment and let me know. Pretty much everything is new to me so I'd love to hear some reviews!

@mysearchisover haha I know! Interesting names on some of them. I have eaten leek before of course but not this variety :)

I should probably grow some leeks. I do grow onion greens. Those go good in chicken noodle soup and are also ok in Salads.

Onion greens are great too. I tried growing some leek earlier in the year but nothing came of that batch of seeds. Perhaps it was too cold. I hope these leeks turn out better :)

So good to see you posting again on steemit. You have been missed!!!! Oh WOW I love the quality of your photos and the veggies themselves look fabulous. It’s always exciting to have a new batch of seeds arrive. I am rather envious 🤣 . I have not managed to make much in the way of vegetables grow so far down in the jungle but herbs are doing well at least and local things like ginger is coming along nicely.
I shall take some photos myself and do a megre gardening update and send you a link ☺️
Keep doing what you are doing as everything looks super delicious. The small tender leaves around that purple broccoli are also delicious by the way if you didn’t know. All totally yummy. Great work @gardeningchef 👏👏👏👏 Upvoted and resteemed
All the best from the jungle 🌈💛🦋🌴

Hey @alkadre should make positive comments on posts if you want attention. This sort of remark is just rude and will get you nowhere and quite possibly flagged as spam too so stop doing it.
