    This year am planning to grow:

    Courgettes: Tromboncino d'Albenga, yellow crookneck, patty pan and normal green ones. And Ronde de nice (sounds like alot of courgettes, prepare yourselves neighbours and friends!)
    Squash/pumpkin: Uchiki kuri again, Burgess butternut, Jap Kent from my friend in Australia
    Cucumber: have just one variety but think that is sufficient - Slangen.

        I grew beth alpha last year and growing them again, very tasty 6-8inch cucs. I dont know if it was me but lots of flowers and nowhere near as many cucs.

            I grew Ronde de nice last year and was not impressed with how few courgettes I got. They tasted alright, just really meagre pickings.

                  Wow I haven’t even started mine yet!! Here’s a thought I’m trying to figure out where I’m going to put all theses squashi squashes..... squash?? I have horse manure in a darlek in the garden (the stables near me only had fresh so thought I’d fill one for the beds next year) could I plant a plant in the bottom and the top? Was planning on putting one in the bottom anyhow!

                    I haven't sowed any squashes or courgettes yet other than my trombos (nine of them), so I best get started at the weekend!

                        Just going to do some tromba and a couple of courgettes

                        Has anyone tried the tromba spiralised like pasta? I'm on a low carb diet at the moment. It seems like the tromba are ideal to be spiralised

                          Tromba do lend themselves very nicely to being spiralised. Very tasty and healthy alternative for SpagBol

                                I grew them one year and didn't get much too. But I like the shape
