It’s been a mixed bag for me, in the UK there’s been very poor rainfall, and this has definitely affected my plants. I’ve been trying to water them where I can, but my plants within grow bags and troughs are not doing nearly as well as those in the soil.
The sunflowers are doing really well despite this, and I’m starting to get some green tomatoes on my tomato plant. The peas were good, but I have now died off. The rhubarb I planted is doing incredibly well, and seems to be taking over part of the garden that’s nothing else can grow in.
I have lots else going on in my life, and I’ve lost interest in gardening slightly, but it’s nice to see my earlier efforts still paying off!

Balcony plants have not been doing well.
I think it got too hot here for a solid week+ and we probably didn’t water them enough during that time, and we didn’t start them inside like we did last year.
One of our shishito and biquinho plants is now finally growing a bit taller and bushier, but we’re really gonna be in a relaxed against time to see if they’ll produce before it hits too late in the fall.
