    So a bit of separating the weeds from the edible stuff to do.

    Greenhouse has lost a few panels but at least thats kept a few things alive in it.

          All parts of nasturtium are edible. The thicker stems that are too stringy for salad use can be cut up small and added to soups, stews and stir fries. Only don't cook them for long, nasturtium doesn't hold up well to eat.

                  Those will be the Cardoons Lolli, going to cook one like an Artichoke to see what they are like, some say they are not worth the effort though.
