Courgette problems, again, sorry!

They'd appreciate a tomato feed if in pots I would think.

I've been using Maxicrop liquid seaweed, I hope this is okay?

That will not hurt but ideally you want a high potash feed ie any tomato fertilizer or comfrey tea.

[cardiffsteve]

or comfrey tea.

white with one sugar please.

I shall go to GC and get some this weekend, Tomato feed that is.

[BroadRipple]

thank you oh wise grapes. HH, I love your slightly frightening curcurbit-anthromporphisation (yes gardeners can do syllables too). Poor old Gladys though, must have been a terrible shock.

[horticultural_hobbit]

good thing I know what Anthromorphisation means...thank you A-level Ethics and Philosophy...Jean Paul Satre or somebody, was that the Nietzche....

[cardiffsteve]

...Jean Paul Satre or somebody, was that the Nietzche....

Are they the names of other veg, tomato, runner beans?

Like BroadRipple said thanks for advice

[horticultural_hobbit]

:P You get that one for free....but may next year. Nietzche would make an interesting moniker for a moody aubergine.

[BroadRipple]

yes and next year I'll be able to spell it.
just went out (I know) with my torch and my gloves for a spot of slug hunting...and think i may have spotted a blighty tomato. BUGGER

I think Claude the courgette is coming to the end of his life cycle. I wonder if there are seven ages of a vegetable. Anyway, yes, had to remove lots of cripsy leaves. They were that cripsy, could have been confused with sea weed. And I don't think he's producing many fruit seems to have slowed right down with the horrible weather.
