eat Cucumber, Eggplant, Rockmelon?? I have these growing and I don't eat that much of them so will have some to give away. Let me know.
And does anyone want some courgettes?? I have heaps in the fridge that need to be used very soon. So they are going now.

I'll probably make a trip down to Welly again once they are all ready so my sister can have some.

with your pumpkins becks, once you have what you think will be enough (to store till next year - we just cut our last one for xmas) pinch the ends out of any new runners so the goodness goes into existing pumpkins rather to new shoots that wont have time to grow. once you pick them just store them in a cool, dry area out on direct sunlight. we have ours in the rafters of the garage

I was told today by some guy I had just met at a friends birthday that eggplant, rockmelon and watermelon don't grow in Palmy unless they are in a greenhouse. They aren't they are in the ground Aimee can vouch for that.
And i'll probably have heaps of sweetcorn as well all my plants (all 24 of them) are giving me corn.
