The Chillies continue to be hardened off. In fact, last night they forgot to come in. None the worse for it. Peito de Moça has recovered from its wilt and greenfly infestation. The aphids clearly don't like it outside. One of the unknown chillies blew over, and sadly snapped off a strong stem.
Today I've been excited by thoughts of summer squash. Seeds were planted three weeks ago, and I might sow more soon. I've got twelve types on the go... that should be enough, eh?
I'll laminate the sheet, it should help me recognize what's growing. Here is a list of what's growing at the moment: Most of these seeds went to the School Staff Room sale. Thanks to anyone who bought them!
Turks Turban, W Robinson & Son
Yugoslavian Finger Fruit, Baker Creek
De Nice (Rond), Lidl
Red Kuri (Hokkaido), Baker Creek
Tromboncino, W Robinson & Son
Jaune de Vert, Sutton Seeds
Courgette, Wilkinsons
Junona Squash, B&Q
Fungo, Baker Creek
Marina di Chioggia, Sutton Seeds
Tondo di Piancenza, Real Seeds
Cucamelon, Sutton Seeds
I'm not really sure I'll have much space to grow anything else!
The Spiraliser came out today for the first time this year. Shop bought courgette, but it's given me a taste for what's to come.
Courgette spaghetti... courgetti or courghetti? And what on earth do Americans call it? Zucchini Linguini? Zuguini?? I'm off to Google it...
