Sow: Apr to Jun
Harvest: Jun to Oct
Sowing Indoors
Sow seeds individually on edge in small pots of firm, moist seed compost, 2 cm deep. Place in warmth (15–18 °C) and keep moist. As seedlings develop, grow on under cool, light conditions, but not in direct sunlight.
Planting Out
Gradually accustom young plants to outdoor conditions for 2–3 weeks before planting out to their cropping positions, after risk of frost has passed. Water and feed regularly.
Sowing Outdoors
Water sowing positions, then sow two or three seeds close together in a group 2 cm deep, 90 cm apart. After germination, leave only the strongest seedlings in each group. Keep well watered in dry spells and feed regularly with a liquid fertiliser.
Caution
Extremely rarely, marrows may produce very bitter fruit that can cause stomach upset. Test by licking the cut surface of one fruit per plant; bitter fruit should not be eaten.
