Sqash/pumpkin patch

It was a sunny day so I gave in and sowed squash and pumpkins under cloches - too early again!

Because I couldn't afford to buy tons of manure this year, I put a few handfuls of chopped nettle and a few handfuls of composted manure in each hole. That will have to do. 

These are the cultivars I'm hoping to grow this year: Orange + Green Hokkaïdo squash-Waltham butternut squash-Boston squash-Hungarian Blue pumkin-Siam squash-Tromboncino
