Hi to all fellow growers. Wishing you well in this growing season.
A big Thank-you to the growers that sent me seeds namely the Paton brothers, Dutch Brad,the Hume family (Porrum) and the Cornish giant(David).
Now apologises to those benefactors. I had a terrible start with failed germinations.
I think I overloaded a small propogator and rotted seed that I was very grateful to recieve.
I started a second set of seeds of these only the 963 Paton 07 made a good seedling. One other didn`t germinate and one was stunted double then ribbon vining.
So my season now depends on one plant, stopped at 32ft wide and the fruit pollunated on the 11th July at 11 ft from the root.
I also have two very nice giant marrow plants with fruits set.
Hope to post photo`s soon. Best regards John
