      12 Courgette plants and only 1 courgette in the last week. 6 of them are yellow courgette plants and we've only had 3 yellow cougettes off them all year. Normally by this time of year the vegetable rack is full of courgettes, including 'special size' ones that will last another couple of months or so. Another failed crop.

      Our yellow courgettes started producing before the green ones but then seemed to come to a stop for about a month. The green ones then grew like mad and the yellows have come back recently. Overall crop:- quite reasonable but not as good as usual.
