As it is I have some nice and sturdy and as you can see -some just having broken the surface.... there are more in the window bottom (covered with plastic) that are just starting to disturb the compost. Once thay have made it through I will move them into the open (somewhere on the tables-if I can make room) so that they don't rot.
This is one of the gold courgettes:-
It's strange as I have never been a fan of courgettes -but last year I thought I would give them a go and I LOVE home grown ones they seem much meatier... and I also found a recipe for courgette teabread -which is out of this world ;-) along similar lines of carrot/passion cake, so even if you don't like them any other way..they are worth growing for that alone!!!

I hope you LOVE courgettes!!
I once had three courgette plants on my allotment. And halfway through the summer even all of my neighbours were fed up with courgettes! lol!!
Hi Becca
mmmmmmm courgette teabread ;-)
I also roast the spares with any extra tomatoes, aubergine, peppers and chilli then blitz into pasta sauces -
I think with mine being in tubs they don't fruit as heavy as those in the ground ...
oooohhhh just thought -my mums courgette quiche -a recipe she got from the lady in Kefalonia..yum
