    In large pots outside in compost.do you think its too much nutrients?

    Nope, courgettes can lose their first leaves especially after just planting out. Just keep them well watered a drench once a week and a feed and they'll be fine. Don't over water them unless we have really hot weather, but a drench is better for plants of all descriptions rather than little bits, especially those in pots.

    Thanks for that.Iforgot to mention I had put my owncompost in the bottom of the pots and was wondering if there was too much nitrogen.
