That sounds lovely Bramble. Never too late - just well prepared for next year!

Ha, not to late for me. We always sow a few seeds in August to plant into the tunnel after the tomatoes come out. They generally fruit up until the end of november when mildew gets them.

Thanks for that.

Oh I like that idea, will be planting some late ones next year.

Mmmm, that sounds nice Bramble - one to keep in mind for next year's glut! Although... I still have 1 courgette in the fridge.... I doubt it weights 350 grams though

Has anyone actually bought that book that's been advertised in the gardening mags (1000 recipes for courgettes or something like that) I think it's about £8 and I was going to order one for my daughter who had so many last summer that she couldn't give them away.

[Lesley Jay]

Yes Rusty Lady I have the book and it is exactly as it says on the label - full of recipes containing courgettes!

[nick the grief]

I got it as part of my MOM pack - I was nearly tempted to gow more courgettes so I had a glut Sense prevailed though ..... & I still had a glut

Rusty Lady, Yes worth every penny, it's been a lifesaver as I've had so many courgettes this year. Can recommend Chocolate Courgette Cake, Courgette Muffins, Aubergine and Courgette Crumble, Stuffed Pasta with Courgette ...
