A plot neighbour gave me some courgette seeds. I sowed a couple but didn't have any space to plant them out until the 10th July. I didn't know that they were a trailing variety until they started trailing round the brassicas, through the rhubarb and on their merry way......... I've been cropping the courgettes from the main part of the plant I could get to. A couple of weeks ago when the plant started dying back, I found this monster lurking underneath the rhubarb. I can hardly lift it and it definitely won't be going home on the bike!

that's a monster..I got one like that, from our all green bush ;D
used it in mustard pickle, instead of cucumber, it worked well :)
Wow ceres....................result ;D
Looks like you'll have to take it home slice at a time ;D ;D
Its rather large isn't it 8)
I think you have it bronzed, give it a name and use it as a doorstop..XX Jeannine
PS..maybe spray it orange and pass it off as a rare pumpkin, it would look good with a face carved on it!!
Bronze door stop ....... I like that idea, except knowing me it would be a permanent trip hazard perfect for the breaking of toes!
I have no idea what to do with that much marrow. The freezers are full to bursting so it will have to be cake, jam and chutney I think.
Wine??
hollow it out and paddle it home?!?
