JoeD 24 Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Hi guys, for anyone whos doing the contest just wondering what your plants are like? I have a couple that are crap aren't doing anything, but I have a few plants that are really healthy and look great. I hope your all having a successful growing season and would love to see pics of the end harvests. All the best and happy growing, Joe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trappa 518 Posted June 25, 2011 Report Share Posted June 25, 2011 Hi joe. My pumpkins, marrows and a couple of butternut squash got mixed up when my greenhouse got blown over and they all ended up a mess on the floor so im not sure which is which yet. They are planted (the ones that survived) so it wont be long before i know which is which. Photos will follow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
