My yellow squash had started to put out tiny fruit but then they turned to mush, not sure why this is happening, they did flower early I thought but plant itself is looking better.
The green zucchini are getting big as plants and no flowers yet which looks more normal.
I think the greens are going to be better than the yellow this year.

jack the yellow squash when that happens ,, its bad pollination,,,, when you have a male flower with a female flower on the plant,,, take off the male flower peddles and swipe in the female flower,,the inside male flower has a pecker ? , push push in the bush,,,,,,,,,,this will help alot,, we get alot by doing this,,,,,,we dont have many bees here??,,,,,,,all the best,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,[COLOR=rgb(26, 188, 156)] ><)))):>

Well, after discussing this further with Mo & Joe… I went out back before the rain noticing several flowers were open and others were not. I remembered Maureen and Joe mentioning this a few years ago and I used it on the Gahgoots flowers and watched them over produce like crazy.
They both thought it was best to get out there now before the rain , so I did……Mary took. Few pics.
We pollenated the zucchini by hand, it’s a hand job.
I used the toothbrush method Mo&Joe recommended And sure it will work.
Thanks MoJoe
