Powdery mildew????

Just come back from a quick trip to my plot.

setting up the rods
just setting up.

I actually intended to go down today to get some serious work done but a walk with the kids turned into a fishing trip/lesson which they really enjoyed so the work on the allotment has yet to happen.

the first fish
whoop...we caught fish!!

Anyway when I went down to pick some runner-beans I noticed my cucumber and marrow plants weren't looking too healthy...I think it may be the powdery mildew everyone has talked about at one time or another so I will take some pics. tomorrow to get confirmation off people...until then enjoy the fishing pictures!!!!

waiting for a bite
waiting anxiously for a bite!!

  1. Think I've got it on my Swiss Chard too, I just washed it off last year, hope it's not toxic!

  4. The fish may be small but considering the kids had never fished before and we pulled out more than a dozen in less than an hour they were more than happy!!!!
