Default My courgette seedlings eaten alive!

Returned from a brief trip to find my courgettes (which were probably late
anyway) destroyed. Is it too late to sow more? I know I can always plant
some and see but really it is the space - is it worth keeping the space
clear for them? I could use it for something else but courgettes is what i
want.

TIA

Yes, do it. I germinated mine on wet kitchen paper only 10 days ago
and then potted them up, and they already have their first true
leaves.
You could look for plants which are a bit further ahead in a garden
centre but you will not get the same satisfaction as growing your own.
