So far, I have 6 nameless courgettes in the ground and 4 in pots in the GH. Also 9 Beth Alpha cucumbers in GH1.
I'm not counting all the seedlings, until they make it to their final position.
I thought you were growing melons as well this year? Yes, Melons and gherkins but they're still seedlings. You'll need to be a little more patient! I have different cucumbers and squashes too.

One each of courgettes: Primula, Tuscany, Sure Thing, Alfresco, Verdi di Milano, Midnight & Tromba.All awaiting being planted and probably gasping in their pots, except Midnight, which was sown late and for the life of me I can't remember where I put the pot.
Looking bak at last year's grow list I feel I've achieved the restraint promised. You see, I'll end up wishing I'd grown more.
Cucumbers: Beth Alpha, Delistar & Shintokiwa. One planted in gh, the others ready and waiting. A few of each, some for givaways.
