How To Grow Yellow Courgette From Seed: Gold Rush can be started in pots indoors from March to April. Planting directly outside can be done from May onwards. Plant 1 courgette seed per small pot (8cm diameter). Transplant the seedling to a bigger pot when it outgrows the smaller one. Transplant to the garden once all risk of frost has passed, giving each plant 1 metre of space. 

Alternatively, sow directly outside from May. Sow two seeds beside each other per square metre. After germination, keep only the strongest seedling.

Harvest the courgettes when they are about 10cm to 12cm long. Harvest regularly to keep the plants producing more fruit.

Seed count is approximate.
