Jeez, they grow fast!

Seed to 60mm in 4 days.

Hoping to stick em in the rougher patch to help with weed control.

The year before last I grew the pumpkin pictured in unmanured unprepared soil and just left it, without even bothering to water it.

Last year I prepared the ground with masses of horsemanure, lots of love and got a miserable specimen half as big as the previous year

I think they like sunshine!
