    Mine just germinated, in 9cm pots, I have a conservatory which I keep them in until the weather warms up, that way they are huge and produce loads of flowers before I harden them off in pots around June...Not sure what variety, as I got them at a seed swap a couple of years back.

    Courgettes grow into marrows if you let them grow long enough!

    No, I'm not.

  • I tried growing marrows last year to no avail, not one seed germinated! So this year I'm sticking with courgettes which I seem to have good results with and Swiss Sue I did leave a couple to marrow sizeimage very tastyimage
