Sorry courgettes.

The fact that I was very late sowing the seeds might have had a lot to do with it, as well as the weather You're not. I have done that so often that I have given up on ordinary courgettes - but, THIS year, even the normally reliable Little Gem, Trompetta d'Albenga and a New Zealand hubbard type have done very badly. I had to bin one of the Trompetta before getting any, because of blight, and another has produced NO courgettes. It never ceases to amaze me that in such a small country people could have such different conditions and failures. Our Courgettes have been superb this year, not able to pick them all before them became too big. The Butternuts have also done well after a very slow start and the fruit are huge this year, the problem is, will they get a chance to ripen before the first frost. Pah ... it's ok for some! -- -- http://www.shop.helpforheroes.org.uk/ |
