Not even the seedling trays are safe. 🐌

I thought keeping the courgette (*Cucurbita pepo*) seedlings in pots would buy them some time before facing the garden's slug population — apparently not. This little snail found its way in anyway and made itself very comfortable on a freshly sprouted leaf. You have to admire the determination, if nothing else.

The eternal battle between gardener and gastropod continues. Round one to the snail.

Zelfs de kweekpotjes zijn niet veilig. 🐌

Ik dacht dat de courgette (*Cucurbita pepo*) zaailingen in potten nog even gespaard zouden blijven van de slakkenpopulatie in de tuin — blijkbaar niet. Dit kleine slakje vond toch zijn weg naar binnen en maakte het zich bijzonder comfortabel op een pas ontkiemd blaadje. Je moet de vastberadenheid bewonderen, al bij al.

De eeuwige strijd tussen tuinier en gastropode gaat verder. Ronde één voor de slak.

The slugs are everywhere every year, but I still remember a few years ago when we had special force slugs rappelling down to our strawberries! 🍓🐌 #GardenProblems #SlugLife
