    defintootly cougette hun
    Serene she stand amid the flowers,
    And only count lifes sunny hours,
    For her dull days do not exist,
    Evermore the optimist

      Frana - how long did your courgette and cucumbers take to germinate? Mine don't seem to want to pop up.

        Took 13 days Nickerly.

        Tried a different approach this time. Sowed them in peat pots under a standard propagator cover, and a few days after germination, put the whole thing into a 5'' pot with a good compost.

        Been on my windowsill for a while but going to harden off for the plot soon.

        I am no expert but I think the secret is warmth and a little bit of humidity in the early stages.

        Works for me anyway.

        Hope all goes well.

          Not too much humidity or they'll rot though! I tend to start both off without any heat but on the window ledge. Both are usually up within the week.

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            Ok, that's not too bad then - mine have only been planted for a week.
