What will be their fate?  ;D

What will be their fate?  ;D

If Tim lived nearer their fate would be sealed - in my tum. Do you know, that's not too  far short of my total crop from 4 plants this season. All on good muck-enriched mounds, all  healthy plants, but with a certain reluctance to do the bizz. Weird. :(

Not my recipe, but similar - Serves 4
4 tablespoons olive oil /8 spring onions, sliced /2 cloves garlic, chopped or crushed /1 lb courgettes, sliced /1 tablespoon pine nut kernels, toasted /1 tablespoon fresh chopped basil/ 1 tablespoon fresh chopped marjoram
1 tablespoon fresh chopped coriander /parsley

And do what comes naturally!!

I'm still harvesting Gold Rush and Kojac - but only because I have been religiously hand-pollinating the plants every day from the word go ::).  All four of my courgette plants just didn't get the hang of it on their own. Talk about mollycoddle ::) - but at least I got an exceptional crop this year!! :) :)

What is the variety of your 'last of the lot' Tim?

White Bush & White Volunteer. This is them in their younger days.

I find them much more 'meaningful' than the run-of-the-mill ones.

My plants are still going strong. I got another marrow sized one because i missed it. I just plant the one plant next time as i can't seem to give them away! they're both now fruiting at two ends, somehow it branched. The receipe sounds good particularly as i have the spring onions as well.

Yes - but do that at least twice - a month apart?

I wanted two plants, so I planted 3 seeds *just in case* ... of course all 3 came up, and I couldn't throw one away now could I?  So I've been harvesting enough courgettes to keep myself and three others in the office going all summer.  Coming to the end now.

Had one or two massive ones but not too bad.
