June: the midsummer month. When the last soft seedlings can grow outside. When courgettes and squashes can be sown direct. These are the days of high sun and garden glory.
Some experts will tell you to sow two courgette or summer squash seeds together and later remove the weaker one. I have never had that plant killer touch. So I try to share out the love and sun. I agree that they require mad amounts of space, along with organic feed and water. We use liquid seaweed, but I am still a little undecided about growing them this year as we get to know the new soil.
