Allotments 4 All

I thought that I had labeled up all my seedlings very well. However - one of my ''pumpkin's'' has started to grow a small round fruit (green) which looks very like my nice-de-rond courgettes.   ???

This is my first year with pumpkins - do they start off green like this? Or did I just get my labels mixed up?  ::)

Hi Nigella,

This is my first year with pumpkins as well, and mine is also growing a small green fruit.

I'm not sure when they turn orange, but hopefully someone will tell us.

Dont worry Nigella, green is good  :)

You are doing ok, have faith...lol  :)

Phew - thanks

Was starting to worry I had all my seeds mixed up !! ::)

Some of my pumpkins were very green last year, and as they were in the shade, we still green when I finally picked them in October, but within days of having them in my conservatory, they were bright yellow.  Some seem to start yellow, some green.
