Cucurbita Pepo var. Cylindrica 'Jemmer' F1
Courgette 'Jemmer' F1
Strictly speaking fruit, not vegetables (as they contain seeds), courgettes are immature marrows. They are a low growing, spreading plant, that can produce up to 30 fruits and carry on fruiting until the first frost. They benefit from lots of organic matter added to the planting position. Courgette 'Jemmer' is a prolific cropper, carried on compact bushy plants bearing tasty golden-yellow courgettes that are easy to see and so pick. Pick them when they're (4" to 6") long do not let them grow any larger as they will reduce the plants production. Require lots of water

Propagating by seed
From Early Spring TO Late Spring
Prepare a bed or hill in a sunny site where the soil is fertile. Make planting pockets 3' apart by digging a hole a spade-depth, width and height, and filling with compost and well-rotted manure, then sow a seed on edge in each pocket. at a depth of about 1" after all danger of frost has passed.. Or sow the seeds singly in pots in the greenhouse, and plant out after they have their first true leaves
Planting
From Mid Spring TO Early Summer
After seeds grown indoors have their first true leaves, and after all danger of frost has passed, plant the seedlings out into a prepared bed or hill that has been well-manured, at a spacing of about 3' for bush types, and 5' for trailing types.
