    I completely agree with Rary - if I had to choose just one squash/courgette to grow, it would be trombos over any courgette and even patty pans.

      I have just realised I have an out now when VC is trying to get me envageled into one of her crazy schemes, I just need to say "that's sensible" and she might forget it then pigs might fly

      it may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.

        Game on
        Seeds arrived this morning and 3 sown.
        Feed the soil, not the plants.

          Just ordered the seeds... Count me in 😁
          There are no gardening mistakes, only learning curves

          No matter how big the job or overwhelming the task, a good dose of sheer obstinacy and bloody-mindedness should see you through

              Not bought the seeds yet, but now planning a trip to Wyvale at lunchtime before resorting to the web for next day gratification.

                You're in Craig. Look for Franchi seeds - they sell them and you gets lots in a packet.

                  G00GLE's got your back.
                  Ital1an Seed Company wanted more for postage than the actual seeds.
                  Amaz0n sold the seeds for 20p more and free postage...

                  Anyway, they are in the post, just need to get them in the ground!

                    One of the two seeds planted. I'm hoping the other one shows up soon.

                      OMG !
                      Haven't even sown mine yet!

                      I may have to do something about that, and I was trying not to rush into things this year

                      I'm planning on growing two again this year. One in the tunnel, one in the bed

                            Hi all, this will be my 3rd year of growing and trombos are a particular favourite. My seeds are settling into the potting compost, hopefully I will see some action in a week or so.

                              You sound experienced in the weird and wonderful ways of Trombas so we look forward to seeing how you get on.

                                Hi Vegi potager - were you specifically looking for trombo nutters? If so, you've come to the right place! I think actually it's my favourite veg of all
