  • My most successful courgettes ever

    the slugs and snails seem to have taken this year off - what a difference it makes!

      They look really healthy. Great pic.

      I didn't do courgettes, but given your success and my lack of slugs or snails I think I might next year.

          The slugs aren't liking the hot weather are they? We got aphids instead this year!

          My courgettes have only been in the ground a fortnight, but they are romping away and have a big flower each

            I've never had any success with courgettes before but read on here they like their roots warm so planted one in a large pot full of chicken poo and have already had my first picking. Those yellow ones look great FHG, I'll try them next year.

              The yellow ones are producing even more then the green ones.

              I was going to try Nigella's Happiness soup with them but it has rice in and himself doesn't like rice. Weirdo. What would be a good substitute do you think? small pasta shapes? some sort of grain? pearl barley perhaps. Any ideas? I suppose it should be yellow to stick with the theme

                those courgettes look lovely FHG - I'd say a small pasta shape or some linguine pasta broken up?? Enjoy!
