What size are these best harvested? Serious question.

Alex 98 · « **Reply #21 on:** July 15, 2008, 17:13 »

These, are best at about eight inches, nice and firm with a bulbous end, which contains most of the seed, have a go, I'm not lying

Very rewarding if handled sympathetically

The things that Aggie has grown, well, ooooohhh Matron?

Perhaps "courgette" is a bit of misnomer though - maybe "corge" instead? - or even "Cor! - ge"

Of course why these things were grown in Italy by 16th-century nuns is fit only for "The Decameron" ...
