Snails have been at the beetroot
After a year the slugs and snails seem to have found the door into the greenhouse. Taking their toll on the beetroot.
Decided to take off the outer leaves and give them a good watering - should help them swell. Put down an extra layer of slug pellets too. Snails, be gone!

Flippin snails! I've had a nightmare with them. All four of my lovely cabbages have been totally destroyed. The slug pellets had zero affect on them. On the plus side, at least they had the decency to wait for the beetroot grow to a decent size first :).
