Sow 3 seeds every 60cm (24in) and thin out to the best seedling.
Growing Instructions
Transplant when large enough to handle into 7.5cm (3in) pots and grow on in cooler conditions.
Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for 10-15 days before planting out after all risk of frost, 60cm (24in) apart in a sunny sheltered spot on rich well drained soil.

Water regularly and feed every 14 days once the courgettes start to develop.
Pick regularly while small 10-16cm (4-6in) and don't leave any on to grow or cropping will be impaired.
