Comment on Back again and wantonly pollinating… by Flummery (Veg Heaven)

Nice to have you back - and pollinating too. It starts to get to you - you look around the garden for things you can cross. It can’t be healthy, really it can’t!

There’s no point is trying to save seed from cucurbits squashes, courgettes etc as you will end up with weird crosses of everything within pollinating distance. Saved seed may grow but won’t be true. Sad botancial fact of life!

Hope the mention of ‘Fuggles’ in the sidebar of ESTHER IN THE GARDEN is ok.

If not, let me know.

Just popping by to let you know that I had 100% germination from your Kew Blue climbing beans. They are looking really good at the moment. Will be planting them out soon, I think. Many thanks.

Gosh yes, I sympathize with your battle. It never ends!

Patrick - thanks for your tips, I’m looking forward to trying it even more. I have heard good things about it dried, too..but better not count my chickens before they’ve tuberised (hmmm).

Seahorse - I think we have pushed ours a little, because the tubers looked so vulnerable that we wanted to give them every chance possible. We’re ferrying them in and out of the greenhouse every day and they seem happy enough - I know the Simon Hickmott book warns against giving them too much warmth and not enough light so I think you may do better than ours in the end!

Kate - thanks very much for your tips, I’m going to double check the growing notes the supplier provided, books and other bloggers that have grown it (Bifurcated Carrots and In the Toad’s Garden) before we get around to planting it out - there seems to be quite a few different strains around, do you know where yours came from? The tip about the snails is welcome, especially - I will be out there with a sharp stick and scissors!
