So far sowed:
10 cucumbers, 6 varieties. Delistar, Emilie, Honeyplus, Konsa. Tasty King, Beth Alpha. Some to be given away. Only Emilie has popped as yet, as it was sown earlier
12 courgettes, 5 varieties Wanda, Tuscany, Alfresco, Bianca Trieste, Green Machine, Sure Thing. None popped yet
7 squash/pumpkin, 3 varieties Tromba, Baked Potato, challenge Pumpkin

I might sow more, unless I can resist. Has anyone any experience of Baked Potato squash?
If they germinate I’ll be growing 1 dill’s Atlantic giant pumpkin.
1 all green bush courgette 1 squash zucchini Wanda
Sown to date - 5 Sure Thing courgettes & 5 Beth Alpha cucumbers.
Only 2 Beth Alpha cucs up to yet.
Sown so far......

3 Courgette - Shooting Star, Parthenon, Tromboncino - 2 of each
1 Marrow - Bush Baby - 2 of each
2 Pumpkin - Jack O Lantern, 2023 Challenge - 2 of each
3 Squash - Harlequin, Table King, Uchiki Kuri - 2 of each

So far courgette Bianca Trieste and cucumber Honey Plus failed to germinate. Bianca is old seed so l can forgive that one but Honey Plus is brand new from Just Seed. If the second one sown fails too, I shall be composing a letter Smile
My 2 Beth alphas have their true leaves.

One Black beauty has popped its head above the compost.

Cucumbers 2 Beth alpha
Courgettes 2 of each Black Beauty, Firenze, Romanesco and I'm giving Fruit Rond another go.

The second Honey Plus has raised its head above the soil, all is forgiven.
