      1 Woohoo!

      Got lots of babies though, so that should increase.
      Education is important, but motorbikes is importanter.

                    2 more Cucumbers

                    My totals are:-

                    Courgettes (Partenon) 1

                    Cucumbers (Passandra) 7 + 2 = 9

                    Courgettes are a bit slow!

                      None yet due to slimy (expletive of choice)

                      Have high hopes of a cucumber in the next week though.....

                        I've got a fantastic potato crop - but courgettes/squash and cucumbers are well behind usual
                        I don't think they really like tap water - which is all they have had so far this year in the SE *sigh*
                        Same here! It must be the tap water I've got some tiny cucumbers on the plants they might grow soon. Courgette plants are flowering but no courgettes,first time growing these so I don't know,a melon plants doing alright in a bucket with straw mulch,it looks like that ball shaped growth could be melon although they're about 1mm (the size of all my produce )

                          Finally got my first fruit rond courgette. It was a strange, double flowered, figure of eight looking thing but it tasted nice. I've been patiently watching the rest of the squashes but they are growing really slowly. Also while the bees are around, doing their job, the male and female flowers don't seem to be opening at the same time and less fruit is setting than I would like.

                            7 courgettes - all still at very small sizes so Him Indoors will eat them without moaning. Demolished tonight fried in butter, lemon and thyme. Mmmmmmmmmmmm!

                              One very, teeny, tiny courgette. Eaten raw right there and then.

                              Most of my veg seems to be eaten raw right there at the veg patch this year. i think im just too excited to wait to get it back and cooked.

                              I moved to a new house late last year so had to start all over again, all the hard work is starting to pay off... albeit slowly and in dribs and drabs.
