    3 x cuces
    3 x pumpkins (2 outdoors and 1 romping away in GH)
    1x butternut squash (massive leaves, looking good)
    2 x trombonchino (growing nicely up obelisk)
    3 x courgette (1 VERY nearly big enough to pick!)

    Oddly (and should not tempt fate - no slug damage to any cucurbit...... )

    We'll see ........

        12 squash, 2 climbing Trombo d'Albegna squash/courgette thingies, 1 courgette and 3 cucumbers.

        3 more squash, 2 courgettes and 2 pickling cumbers all got snugged as babies

        Nothing picked yet, and won't for ages cos they haven't even got flowers yet - can't see them doing very well unless we actually get a Summer soon *sigh*

              6 courgettes - nothing yet though there are some interesting signs
              7 assorted gherkins and cukes - cukes are a week or two away from being harvestable
              3 melons (g/h) and one kiwano - nothing yet

              and then...

              19 squash planted out, 4 more to go - the other 10 were slugged to smithereens.

                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?

                  Every year a thread is usually started whereby members note what seeds they have sown. Here's this years............http://www.growfruitandveg.co.uk/gra...6-a_87843.html..............a new one will most likely start in 2017.

                    Forgive me Alison but what does the "No" mean?

                      I planted 1 courgette - already harvested 5 and 2 cucumber plants (and then realised they were of the climbing sort - yes I am a newly) and already collected 3.
                      Lots more of everything on their way...

                                Noticed yesterday I have inch long courgettes on two of my plants (1 yellow and 1 green). They were the first two plants put out so am hopeful all this sun and rain will get them speeding along
