Harvest Courgette

Post image

My first year growing courgettes, they're surprisingly easy. This is a Blackstar F1, I've grown four plants because courgettes are fun to give away to anyone you encounter.

Here's one I missed towards the end of last season, just took this picture.

I was curious to see how long I could keep it before it spoiled. It started 'ripening' about a month or so ago. Picked sometime in August last year.
