Yep - there is a good handful left in the packet Zaz - like a lot of Spanish seeds they have that red stuff dusted on them though

Fungicide. DON'T LICK THOSE FINGERS

Lets talk after I've scoured HSL, just in case I do find some.

You're a marvel Jeanie, did I ever tell you that? xxx

*blushes furiously.

I am sure there are some of these in the squash club seed parcel too if anyone is interested.

Hmm - you don't think it was these do you Zaz? In which case I may have some left in the packet.
* poddles off to check.

Being a naturally curious female I clicked on the link and then Google translated it from Spanish. To save you all the bother this is the description of the courgette:
Mata unbranched very early, fine fruit oblong rounded ends and white coloration. Highly productive plant while removing it will not cease to bear fruit squash. Method of Cultivation : It is sown from February to May, shock, placing 6-8 seeds should be put to soak a few hours before planting. It is advisable to cover the seed with compost. Once the plants are well established, clear, leaving only 2-3 plants per hill. You need plenty of watering especially when she starts to bear fruit.
I hope you "shocked" your seeds, Zaz?

I always shock my seeds, don't you



*Thanks for the translation, they sound just the ticket; hence being so keen to get hold of more.

[veggiechicken]

They must be huge plants "leaving only 2-3 plants per hill!" No wonder they need to be shocked!

Is the hunt off?

I have a packet of squash/courgette someone brought me back off their holiday called Calabac�n Virginia 3.



The courgettes on the packet are slightly more fatter at the end than the stock photo.

I always shock my seeds, don't you

When I open the packet it must be one hell of a shock for the poor dears, just as well it doesn't frighten the life out of them

Why? Do you pull faces at them?

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Get in.

I went to see the HSL ladies, and lo and behold 'we've got some of them' - so I am the proud owner of a bag of 6 seeds.

I'm over the proverbial.
