My Mum's cauliflowers
You see my mum has always grown her own tomatoes from seed and runner beans too. Every year a few extras are put in for me..(even before my allotment). Anyway this year to return the compliment I grew my Mum some brussel, cabbage and cauliflower saplings and when they were ready I planted them for her.
My Mum's cabbages
Now my Mums seedlings went in a week after mine and yet they are at least TWICE the size...I mean it just isn't right!!!!
My Mum's brussels
And as for her tomatoes...well just look for your self!!
They are HUGE!!
You can see from this picture that the trusses are well over 30 cm's long.
And when we counted we found that there was an average of 100 tomatoes on each truss!!
Now this can't be natural by any standards and has never happened before..and yes people..my mum is totally organic!!!! The only thing growing in her garden at a normal rate is her runner beans!!
The poor things..they must feel very inadequate next to everything else!
