Growth tips

Growing Instructions:

  • Indoors: Sow seeds from mid-April under glass and transplant into pots, then plant out in mid-May.
  • Outdoors: Alternatively, sow directly in open ground in mid-May and plant out in June.
  • Location: Choose a sunny spot for best results.

Growing Periods:

  • Sowing Indoors: April to May
  • Sowing Outdoors: May to June
  • Harvesting: July to October

Advice and Tips:

  • Keep the soil moist and nutrient-rich, as Courgette needs plenty of water and nutrients to thrive.
  • Regularly harvest young courgettes to encourage continuous fruit production.

Pros and cons

According to our gardening experts

  • Compact, non-vining courgette or zucchini variety
  • This yellow type can be grown in a polytunnel, greenhouse, or open ground.
  • Enjoy consistent harvests from as early as June until the first frost.
  • Unique yellow fruits with a curved neck, ideal for both consumption and ornamental use
  • During rainy summers, plants can sometimes get infected with powdery mildew. While it usually doesn't harm the plant, it can make them look less attractive.
  • The curved necks make these courgettes less suitable for the preparation of stuffed courgettes

For an early harvest, start courgettes indoors or in a greenhouse in April. Once the last frost has passed and your plants have grown to a decent size, they are ready to be transplanted. This allows you to harvest your first courgettes as early as late June! From then onwards, you won't need to buy any until the first frost. With just one or two plants, you'll be able to provide your family with fresh harvests.
