COURGETTES IN POTS
Where garden space is limited courgettes are ideal for growing in large containers and if well looked after they should produce a good crop of courgettes over the summer months. By September the plants can start to get a little tired and if allowed to dry out, will stop flowering and fruiting. With just a little extra care you can give the plants a boost and keep them fruiting for several more weeks. Pick off all the fruit and give the plants a liquid feed twice a week and keep the compost moist at all times. This should encourage a last flush of flowers and small courgettes into early autumn.
