So, I may have my very first developing courgette! I know its a good idea to remove the female flower to prevent rotting, but I also know that if it's not really going to be a courgette yet that removing it will stop it developing. So - how do you tell if it properly set? The thing in question does look like a small courgette (i.e. it's that dark green colour), as opposed to the swelling that was behind the flower (which was paler). So I'm assuming I should remove it. Is it just a case of pulling it off, or is it a better idea to use a knife?
