Save 2 varieties of cucurbit (cues, melon, edible gourd, squash, courgette, luffa and watermelon) and no F1's please with 5-10 seeds per pack.
No pressure, register your interest - and the varieties you fancy saving if you know what you are going to grow. However we all know the best intended plans can go wrong, so do not panic
Come November I will ask for a shout out of who is still in. So we can get an idea of packs needed. Pm me for an address when you are ready to send in. Please send with stamps for return postage no later than the 14th Jan. (Unless there is good cause and everyone is ok about it)

Please note these plants will cross easily within their own little families, so isolation is important. Don't let this put you off as all you need is some fancy favour bags and you will soon find yourself running round the patch waiting for flowers and then playing the dating game with them
Be warned - it is addictive
