It has begun - I have courgettes!! They are currently about 1 cm long and very beautiful. I also have lots of flowers on some other plants, all male. Should I be picking these off for some reason? I am such a proud parent!
Well Done! Seeing the results of your hard labour is great isn't it? :D
Piglit - no! = Tim
Congratulations piglit, I have the knitting needles out and am creating booties as we speak! ;D
...............mine are still small plants....no flowers...no babies.....boohoo :'(
It is because you put there little feet in the poo without any booties ??!!?? ;D
Dear Phil,
Please explain that last comment.. without their bootees.
I am growing courgettes for first time and take every comment seriously ;D
What do you mean ???
sincerely,
Thick veg growing person ;D
I have teeny tiny peppers today on one of my plants! Hurrah! :D
Baby peppers! I am soooooooooooooo behind! When everyone was saying they were growing peppers and squashes early on in the year, I thought to myself, too early, plenty of time, don't worry Emma, yours will catch up, and now.......my peppers are just a couple of inches high! >:( Oh well, I have flowers on my toms so that is my little ray of sunshine. :)
No flowers on my Toms yet EJ, but flowers on my aubergines! ;D
Thats it, I am going to sow things so much earlier next year! I am not going to be left out of all this action again!! :-\
Debs - don't take Phil's remark too seriously. Unless he meant that the roots were too close to the manure without compost between. How would he know?? = Tim
I was picking up on EJs comments about knotting booties in the message above.
It was "humorous" :( but I do not intend invoking the voting option on that!!!!
Phew !! thank goodness for that. I was wondering if I had done something wrong during the growing process ;D ;D
