Growing vegetables in winter is not always such a great idea. Here are my lettuces that I planted a while back. Its been raining a lot, but its not really cold yet, so the ground is lovely and wet for the snails and slugs to crawl over, feasting on everything they enjoy.
Not everything is suffering though, here are the 'weeds' that have colonised alongside the retaining wall. So, just in this patch I can see dandelion, and nasturtium, and puha.
And here in the foreground, some tomato plants, from the neighbours plants that hung over the fence at the end of summer.
And after all, a weed is really just a plant that grows well. I'm not quite sure how much I am going to embrace all this growth though.
