How do I grow corn and courgettes. Would like to be able to grow both can buy those in a supermarket like the small growth variety nice in stirfrys. Also how do I keep my strawberries growing till next year. They are in my greenhouse growing in ground and have given off nice healthy runners. Should I keep watering and do Ihave to feed. Thankyou kath

Hello Kathleen - courgettes are easily grown from seed sown in late spring - probably May would be a safe time for you to do this - you are further north than me. You will need a bit of room as the leaves spread out quite a bit ! Some of the seed catalogues have mini veg varieties. I will have a look and get back to you.

Thanks Anna I have grown courgettes before but the mini varities. And they did grow big a bit like marrows,I want the small corgettes for cooking in a stir fry. This would apply for mini sweetcorn as well.
