Courgette Seeds

Healthy, tasty and easy to grow, courgettes are fantastic vegetables for any kitchen garden or allotment. They are simply delicious when freshly picked – perfect for everything from soups to ratatouille; they can even be spiralised into ‘courgetti’ for a low-carb pasta alternative or enjoyed raw in salads with a zingy dressing. The flowers can also be deep-fried or stuffed and eaten!

Courgette seeds are fantastic early croppers and much more prolific than their marrow cousins. They grow well in small spaces, have a mild and versatile flavour that works well in almost anything and are surprisingly high-yielding. With plenty of water and sunlight, they’ll be ready to harvest from just six to eight weeks after sowing.

To grow courgette seeds, sow them indoors in well-drained compost, then plant out after the last frost, giving them space to grow. Pick regularly to encourage continued cropping – they have the best flavour when they’re around 10-15cm (4-6in) long.
