      • I blinked and my tally now reads 15 courgettes...

        (Ridiculous plant! Slow down, I'm struggling to keep up!)

        • Cukes 71+ 6= 78
          just a few stragglers left in the glass house and a few more outside.
          Courgettes 25+ 2 one ball = 27
          Shooting star looks like I may get a few more.
          Squash =4
          got 2 good looking trombos and an autumn crown waiting to be harvested.
          Not a terrible number for someone who has more enthusiasm than green digits.
          V.P.
          The thing I grow best are very large slugs!

          • Had to pick a monster cuc today as it was starting to pull the whole plant and stake over!
            (Was hoping to leave it another day or two to let consumption catch up with supply)

            Cucumber Femspot 18 + 1 = 19
            (3 plants)

            • One of my posts seem to have disappeared, or maybe I clicked the wrong button. To get up to date, in the last few days I've picked 5 courgettes including one mini marrow.

              courgettes - 73 +2 + 3 = 78

                    This last was taken a couple of weeks ago. Will take a more recent one when I can.

                    • (For the curious, Dill's Atlantic Giant, planted in a builder's bag approximately half filled with the rough stuff from the compost heap, some top soil, a little MPC, manure and grass clippings. Sharing space with an Uchiki Kuri and a sunflower. It won't be epic, but it's nice. )

                      • Picked another big one today. This variety does seem to produce monster cucumbers which taste good too!

                          • I've had a complete dreadful year for for the squashes, hardly any fruit, most rotted, probably due to poor pollination.
                            What I do have is very small and I'm thinking that at this time of year, any flowers that pollinate aren't worth bothering with
