apparently, if you drop 1 or 2 seeds of garlic chives wiv your brassica seed, it germinates at the same time and ..err.... oh yes, when you plant it out, it smells and the cabbage fly doesn't like it
Just read that in the 1/2 hr allotment book

Is that book any good Dom?

I borrowed it from the library Bags, have a look to see if they've got it... Not worth buying I don't think.... But it does tell you how many plants 'one' needs for say a family of four, to avoid gluts and things Recommends 4 courgette plants
I could never manage to spend 30 min a day on the lottie, everyday. Also it gives a sample timetable i,e, pick leeks, 10 min, weed, 10 min, dig bed 10 min.... Very regimented like, which I'm not

Am I the only one who *doesn't* bother about courgette gluts? I just laugh about it and give them all away!

No MB you aren't the only one

A courgette glut has never bothered me

I hope it does this year Ade

yeah, here's to Ady's courgettes!

I got about 2 courgettes last year off 4 plants. And 2 whopping marrows. It was the crappiest year so far that's why I am dowsizing and having a veg plot at home too.
