do you have flowers on your courgettes already ? mine are not talking to me and just keep growing leaves ... no flowers as of yet ... think i have fallen out with them now tbh lol0

Yes.. well I had two different varieties of seeds and got a bit mixed up which were planted where.. but we have two huge plants with flowers and two small fruits on each. I think these are the Parthenon F1 variety which are self-fertilising. The other two plants are tiny and not doing well at all. Mr S had one last year which flowered but needed to be fertilised and the male and female flowers refused to open at the same time! I'd be surprised if yours didn't flower at all, when did you plant them?Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0

ohhh ages ago now .. round about feb or march ... it was one of the first things i planted tbh ... they are big plants huge in fact ... four take up a one mtr square bed ... and they dont look like they are ready to stop growing ... they just dont want to give me flowers or fruit0

Hmm thought they would have flowered by now then, depends on the variety maybe. I've got some currant bushes that haven't flowered at all in the three years I've had them! Hang on in there, they might be late developers!Debt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0

Actually I might have to look myself as I can't quite remember what happens!
Lovely day here, it's warm and sunny, I'm wearing a dress... work is fairly quiet but have a couple of meetings later. No particular plans for the weekend although I suspect there will be the usual gardening bits going on.
Going to start serious holiday hunting soonDebt@16.12.09 £10,362.38, now debt free as of 29.02.2012."I cannot make my days longer so I strive to make them better."0
