Powdery mildew will strike all the cultivars that I have seen if the

Thompson and Morgan sell a variety of Courgette which we have found to be resistent to Mildew. Not sure of the name off hand, but it is advertised as such.
Onions adore sun. And do not omplain too much about Spring onions, in 40 odd years of growing veg I have never even managed to get the seeds to germinate, never mind grow to any size. And before you all jump in and tell me how to do it, I have tried every single method ever suggested without success.
