should I feed them, and if so how often?
thanks!

Yes, once the courgettes start to swell. I did it about every two weeks.

Boo hoo - you've made me want some now, and I haven't got any this year!

thanks Uriel
we have 4 plants with some teeny tiny courgettes just starting to appear so am hoping for a good crop- though looks like the slugs have been at the plants damn them!

Ah, wondered where all the slugs had gone!

My garden appears to be World HQ for snails.

CatIsSleepy · 06/06/2008 15:05

oh we have plenty of snails too
dh's current strategy is to go round picking them off all the plants-dd likes playing with them but can get a bit over-enthusiastic and end up covered in mushed snail

that's gross isn't it? can't decide if it's better or worse than using slug pellets...
