Allotments 4 All

Picked at the weekend..

not the best sizes.. didn't water them in September and it was dry...
which can you identify?

I only recognise one! Crown prince?

Wow saddad  How do you cook all those ?What's your favourite recipe ?  :o

Correct... Crown Prince top right...

we roast a lot but some end up in soup... pumpkin, lee and potato.. or spicy pumpkin. Some end up as pumpkin cakes on halloween/bonfire night with cinnamon sugar..

Haven't shown the Veg Spaghetti as I can't get them all in the pic!! and we boil them or do them in the microwave..  :)

Fantastic crop Saddad. we've also struggled for water in September and I haven't been able to do much so they've been left to their own devices (so to speak)
As to varieties - good game good game  ;)
I reckon there's a Marina Di Choggia, a couple of Ausie Blues and some Uchiki Kuri, as to the rest haven't a clue  ;D
What I would like to know is what are the ones that are dark green, at the back of the table!

Saddad, I think I recognise the old looking blue one at the back in the 2ND picture, it'll come to me in a minute.   ;)     ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Quotethe ones that are dark green, at the back of the table!

The very dark ones are (Chicago) Warted Hubbards and the big blocky ones are Queensland Blue...
Less of the cheek Kev!!  ;D

Festival for the yeloow/green reticulated acorn?

Winter Festival Chris ... yep  :)

Sorry Saddad but I'm in one of them moods.   :P     ;)     ;D ;D ;D     :-*

Well, it made me laugh so much I nearly wet my knickers.  That is the trouble about getting old.  Cornykev you should be on TV, I just love your sense of humour, funny, but not crude or too hurtful.  Hope you are going to vote for my lovely view from my back gate, thought it would be a joke, and it is true, poor me.  Wish I had a lake at the bottom of my garden.   :( :( :(, but at least the house prices are good in lovely sunny north London.  ;D ;D ;D and I have paid the mortgage. (checked the spelling, funny word, probably means one is dead when one pays it off (mort) means dead, I think.  Sorry going off topic. And my lovely friends have given me so much squash, I have squash soup coming out of my ears, or in the freezer.

What? no butternuts David? Great haul though.

All I've managed this year are 1 Buttercup, 1 Guatamalen Blue, 1 Uchiki Kuri and 7 Hunter butternuts.

Tricia

For some reason my one fabled butternut didn't make it onto the table... it was growing on a different plot...  ::)

That green one in the centre front really looked like it wanted to be a triamble ;)

Lovely show Saddad.

Ninny

It is a triamble... albeit not very tri-ing..  :-X

Well done..lovely haul I am very jealous XX Jeannine

Just lovely, saddad! I am jealous too. I'll have to buy a pumpkin to make my pumpkin lasagna this year for Bonfire night!  :-[

Pumpkin lasagna sounds nice........lovely haul, forgot to take a photo of my little lot again today... ::)

I had a few disappointing performers this year too, Baby Boo only made one fruit, and the usually reliable Jack Be Little only made a handful too. My best performing squash were the 'Cinderella' pumpkin 'Rouge Vif D'Etampes', and some 'Amish Pie' which made very useful medium sized fruits. Have to try some more varieties next year now I have a bit more room and intend to stick to early potatoes so the squash can follow on after them..... ;D

Wow!  Absolutely fantastic!!!  Well done Saddad.

Queensland Blue pumpkin ..... I can taste the scones, the fruit cake, the soup ......  I think it's time I headed home (back to Queensland!!)  ;D
