Bartjan and his 1188 Paton.
Day 57 - est. 1184 - up about 80 lbs last 7 days (last week's estimate should have been 1104 lbs). The small size of the plant is going to be a negative factor for the last stage.

Weather has been cold, wet and dark.

In the NOT-DOING-GOOD-AT-ALL class are my squash, the long gourds (too cold), potatoes and carrots.
In the DOING-WELL class are the marrows, parsnips, tomatoes and peppers. Perhaps the beetroots and one of the cornstalks and one of the sunflowers too.
In the WHO-CARES? class are the runnerbeans, swedes, kohlrabi and cucumbers as these are all (pretty) new categories for me.
