I have come across some pictures of some veg i was growing last summer while everything else was going on in the garden. This isnt how it is this year, i am experimenting, again lol

This is the cucs. I had Telegraph and Marketmore. The Tels are on the right. They have bigger leaves. A bit like the African and Indian elephant with the ears haha :) They get bad powdery mildew and then it passes to the other cucs, the melons in my carport got it too.

Nothing wrong with the cucs at all, massive crop. You can just start to see the lower leaves getting affected. I spent all summer washing the leaves with soapy water.

I grew melons too. You can see behind them where i removed a window of the greenhouse. This is on the right side of the g/h. If you remember earlier when the trees were cut down it left a recess at the side of the g/h. It has a poly roof on and works as storage in the winter but in the summer i can put plants inside. Withe the panels from the g/h taken out it gives more ventilation.
