Mildew

I have sprayed the plants that have mildew, twice and to be honest it doesn't seem to be making much of a difference. I changed the ratio to 1 milk 9 water after reading up on it. I will persevere with the treatment as i really don't want to lose the squash but any advice on how to prevent it in the future would be gladly welcomed.

I had the first of the carrots yesterday and they were lovely and sweet and I'm sure pleased that the carrot fly did not find them! They were only small so I will leave the rest of them a bit longer.

The beetroot is looking good but still a little small.

I was late with the peas but they are flowering now, and the beans are still climbing but no flowers as yet so i don't know if i was too late with them.
