I haven't planted them out yet. We've had builders in destroying the garden and only got the space back a few weeks ago, and I got giddy and planted up all the seeds I could find with no regard to where they're going. I might put one or two squash seedlings in the top of the compost bin but I certainly don't need a third.

in the top of the compost bin

That's an inspired idea. I reckon I could get away with 2 at the top of the compost - it's full now, so it's not as if they'll be disturbed, and it might stop the foxes / squirrels / magpies from digging it up.

Our bin is in a relatively shady spot, although we face south and there's nowhere totally shady, so it's not the best place for them. But it's more for fun than food really. And the bin is surrounded by an empty patch at the moment so it may as well get covered with a big old squash.
