Allotments 4 All

I've grown some ornamental gourds this year and I couldn't believe how well one in particular did.  It's the one in the bucket and on the scarecrow's lap - at least 25 on ONE PLANT! :o
I wish my butternuts had been as productive!

(My grandchildren are going to make mini-halloween lanterns with some of them)

the lanterns sound like a lovely idea Squash!
And BTW do your scarecrows have names and if so who is holding the gourds? !

I tried the Snake and Russian Doll variants and have next to nothing.  Hardly worth the effort.  They were planted in the manure pile and still failed to produce the goods. ::) ::)

I do name the scarecrows but then I forget who is who and end up calling all of them Kev!

That's a bit corny :D

Cute lap of bubbles!  There must be many things to do with those gourds. Looks like fun ahead.
