Gardener’s Tip

Sow indoors early or directly outdoors once temperatures rise, in fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny, sheltered position. Courgettes need warmth and space to thrive, so allow plenty of room for growth.

Harvest fruits regularly while young to keep plants productive. Frequent picking encourages more courgettes to develop, giving you a steady supply throughout the season.
