Not too late for Squash!

[Amazin]

In my haste to avoid the rain last week, I knocked over a jar of assorted pumpkin and squash seeds. I've barely been outdoors since, so I forgot about them - until tonight, when I spotted this... get sowing folks!

I've got a packet of butternut squash seeds (free gift with magazine) have never grown them before but find I like eating them :P

have been wondering  if I pop a couple of seeds into big space on lottie, they might grow?...seeing your pics. think I might give it a go :)

but guess this continued wet & often dull weather might prevent them from developing into anything worthwhile - surely they need loads of sunshine?

H.P.

Yes, but the word is we'll get the sunshine and heat eventually - and possibly a long late summer! Worth a try, eh?

giving it a go - put 3 seeds directly into ground today after preparing it well.....keeping my fingers crossed in the hope that at least one will grow.

just watch out for the slugs 'n snails  ;D

I'm panicking!....cos I forgot to put any pellets around 'the sowing' but sure at this stage (before seedling appears) they can't or wont get at the 'seed' will they?

no, only when the nice, green shoots appear  ;D
