Lol, they'll probably be rubbish this year but last year people were actively avoiding me so as not to be forced to take more courgettes

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? -
Thanks for all your advice....as usual this forum comes up trumps !!!!!
I think I will start them off in the greenhouse then plant them out in big pots or growbags ...
Does that sound like a reasonable plan ?
Cheers
StuartI think this might be my greenhouse ( very amateur) and other trivia blog page!!! Do feel free to drop in !

upended growbags, otherwise if you use them 'flat' they're too shallow and dry out too quickly

I find that I get a much lower crop off them when I put them in pots etc so you'll probably need more plants but they can do well so long as you feed and water properly as they're very hungry plants.

Minimum pot size would be a 3 gallon bucket otherwise they suck it dry in warm weather. I grow 2/3 plants this way and get a reasonble yield but I am sure this is one of the plants that really should be in a very large container i.e. a mini skip. LOL
