Four of my five mystery courgette plants from the Kokopelli Arc-en-Ciel de Potagères mixed packed are now producing so I'm having fun playing Which Courgette are You!

Gherkin Dekah (1 plant) - picked 4
Cucumber Sweet Marketmore (1 plant) harvested - 2+1=3

Courgette Dark Star (1 plant) harvested - 4+1=5

Courgette - Shooting Star/Zucchini
Cucumber - Bush Champion/Mini Munch
Marrow - Long Green Bush
Squash - Butternut Chieftain/Harlequin/Table King/Uchiki/Tromboncino

So far 7 of the 20 have germinated. A bit of a change/experiment this year, to save on compost I use a 50/50 manure/compost mix to sow them in!

Well tonight we will be harvesting our first of the year!!
