I pot courgettes on once there are a reasonable number of roots poking

keeping them in too small a pot - at least until they are a productive
size, when I am limited by greenhouse space!




Do you think there is much advantage over growing in open ground
rather than say in 10 inch pots?

Lots of advantage - more root space, plant will be able to spread
better.

I grow in pots only because I have too many snails and slugs.
