Perhaps now that\u00a0most of them have been moved out to the greenhouse the others are getting more light and air. Last week the not-so-dwarf bean was flowering, this week it has baby beans on it:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>Only a few so far, but let&#8217;s wait and see. On to the crazy cucumber plant, which is now sprouting lots of yellow flowers (which hopefully means\u00a0heaps of mini cucumbers starting soon):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>Both those plants are getting too big for the windowsill, unfortunately. I think I&#8217;m going to have to get them into bigger pots and get them used to the great outdoors over the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The chervil and the dill have already been outdoors a few times, going back into the greenhouse at night. We&#8217;ve been eating them too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>The tomato plants are looking kind of scruffy, but apparently that&#8217;s normal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>The experimental pot with spinach, land cress and rocket is now growing quite well &#8211; the land cress is probably the happiest:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>We have some nearly-there spring onions too:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p>As for the rest of it, the cut-and-come-again salad leaves haven&#8217;t grown back (surprise!), the second crop of pea shoots have grown back (slowly but surely), and the basil and parsley are very happy. We ate all the alfalfa (nicer than I remembered) and radish shoots, but might do some more next week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are you growing any herbs or veggies indoors?
