I've put in 6 but there's a spare asking to be planted ;)
I make courgette soup with roasted garlic so need plenty for that ,but my neighbours (a lovely family) get a steady supply from us when they start cropping.

I grow 1 Parthenon, 1 Cavili, 1 Climbing Black Forest and 1 Rugosa Friulana. The harvest from those 4 plants feed me, my neighbours and my friends till we are sick of them, but 24! Betty, I think you may have planted a very big problem there! ;D ::).

You can always give any surplus away, and make new friends. A think the slugs have got mine, so may not have many this year. :( :(

When I saw you today I thought you were planting out your squash because there were so many. Thought I was going some putting 6 out. Don't think I'm gonna bother now. I will just have yours. ;D

Oh blimey - we are having a torrential downpour now, I bet they have all been washed away.

I was thinking how restrained I'd been this year, I usually plant over 30.

Flighty · « **Reply #18 on:** May 30, 2012, 17:27:34 »

Squash what do you do with all the courgettes? Or is that a silly question!
