Courgettes day 10


I'm growing courgettes (zucchini) in our back garden. I planted the seeds on 9th May. (Edit: Actually it was the 16th.) Saturday was the first day I noticed shoots. They've got a bit bigger since then.

Any tips for growing courgettes? They're getting plenty of water at the moment because it keeps on raining.

  2. Keep the slugs away (easier said than done)

  3. A grow-bag.

    Yeah, I wondered about anti-slug measures. I might try crumbled egg shell round them, see if that makes a difference.
