This is the first year I have attempted to grow courgettes and need advise. I am growing two in my greenhouse and they look like something from a sci-fiction film, they are so big with lots of leaves. There are dozens of flowers but on top of very long (perhaps 12inches in length) stalks, there are only a couple of short fat courgettes on each plant. Someone I spoke to about this and they thought I had to take off the long stalks. Is this correct and how do I get more usable formed courgettes. many thanks for any help you can give.
