I have made a bit of a error. I planted several pots of cucumber and
gourds few weeks ago which are all growing well and now need to be
planted out, only problem is I do not know which is which ( I was not
roganised enough to lable them )
This would not be a problem but I want to keep the cucmbers in the
greenhouse and the gourds can go outside
Does anyone know any way of identifying them ? I could sort out some
pictures if anyone thinks they could indentify them from the
pictures.
One big difference between the two is one type has massive root growth
out of the bottom of the pot, just mention in case this helps
Cheers
Phil

It's hard in the cucurbit family. Bill who putters found this:
