Growing Tips:
- Planting: Start seeds indoors in early spring, about 6-8 weeks before the last frost. Transplant the young plants outdoors after the last frost, when the weather is consistently warm.
- Spacing: Marrows need a lot of room to grow. Space them at least 3 metres apart to allow the plants plenty of room to stretch out and produce their massive fruits.
- Soil: Enrich the soil with organic matter, such as compost, to ensure it’s rich and well-drained. Marrows prefer slightly alkaline soil (pH 7-8).
- Watering: These marrows need plenty of water, especially when the fruits are growing. Water deeply, but ensure the soil isn’t waterlogged.
- Support: For the biggest marrows, consider using supports such as stakes or trellises to keep the giant fruits off the ground, preventing rot and ensuring they grow to their full potential.
Harvesting: Marrows are ready for harvest when they’ve reached full size, with firm skin and mature flesh. The bigger, the better! For the ultimate giant vegetable, let them grow to their full potential before harvesting.
