Lemon Cucumber plants are flowering and covered with tiny cucumbers. Pickles, anyone?
The beets are doing fine and providing a mild supplement to the spicy mesclun mix salad greens.
The Swiss Chard is enjoying the rain and sunshine. I've got ten or so plants growing in succession (happened naturally somehow) for some excellent side dish portions. 
The plot is in fine health despite the overwhelming numbers of woodlice (pill bugs) rolling about. In researching the problem, I've discovered that they are crustaceans, not insects, and they thrive in damp conditions. I'm hoping they'll be content to munch on my bolting radishes and leave the rest alone.
