Courgettes

Have grown quite a few courgettes which will be planted outside once weather improves but wonder if I could grow one in a large pot in the greenhouse.

    I’ve grown them in large pots , but outside , they do take up a lot of space

    Have a large greenhouse so space not an issue.  Maybe I'll put one in a really big pot and let it scramble along staging and see what happens.

    You say you have a few...how many is a few? I hope you like courgettes 😃. One or two plants usually give me more than i can eat! I have used pots before but only outside.

    We eat lots and lots of ratatouille which is fine frozen.

    Am coming round, I absolutely love Ratatouille!! grow 3 plants in pots,not massive ones,up on staging made from grandkids old playhouse, so they can hang down and keep them away from the slugs
