This was fantastic! Thank you for the information!
Great video and info! Thanks! 👍
so you need to grow both in order to get zucchini?
Why are the leaves curling
I'm using a 12' aluminum skiff. I'm planning on four zucchini plants and a couple of varieties of leaf lettuce. 1:39
I wrap the base of the main stem (where it meets the soil) in aluminum foil…it keeps the squash borer beetles from depositing eggs/larvae there. I found this tip a few years ago and it works like a dream, no borers!
I love zuccinni
Early on in both my winter and summer squash the females always flower first. The little mini squash will already have begun to rot before any males flower. Then the males die. Later in the season they start to jive and the bees do their thing pollinating.
Some great advice ❤
2:14 what kind of soil does zucchini need to grow in?
In discussing squash bug eggs at @4:37 you showed a pic of their brown eggs on the underside of a zucchini leaf. You didnt mention it, but cool nonetheless: the small fly-looking insect in the pic is in fact a wasp that parasitizes the squash-bug eggs by laying its own eggs within them.
What month did you start the seeds inside ??

In Mexico, from what I've heard, they grow squash, beans, and corn together as a form of pest control. And that's probably why they don't use pesticides like all of the US formers do.
Wow! This lady is very knowledgeable and a great speaker! It's been a very educational experience for me.
How to grow a cabbage
I grow mine in 30 litre containers of nothing but 12 month aged, home made compost. They're sat on the path, so get plenty of space & air flow.
Please don’t assume gender when talking about the zucchini, they may identify as in the middle somewhere, please be careful with being so judgmental
Hi Brenda from Pa.
Unless u have 10 kids, what on earth would anyone do with that much? Sell, maybe?
the exception for the ant issue is PEONIES! they need ants to eat the sap off the buds so they can bloom!
Really good tips. Here on the East Coast in upstate New York. I have a problem with Robins Pulling off the flowers and eating the budding zucchini. It’s a problem initially because they go after them immediately.
Thanks Nicole for your great A-Zucchini tips.
Italians fry the flowers after dipped in egg and flower…
I love your videos.I wish I know you.
can you plant them in bags or buckets?
Great short informative video.
I love your channel!
Is there a way to grow a zucchini from the end of a zucchini
OMG Nicole a clip from this video just showed up in new Wisecrack video called “Will We All Work Until We Die?” at 14:11 in that video. I guess the folks over at Wisecrack also love your channel.
Ants farm aphids they Cary them from plant to plant they will also carry the eggs from plant to plant and BT spray is an organic way to stop vine borers I use a piece of cardboard laying on ground under plant to attract squash bugs and I flip over every morning and spray them all with dish soap solution
My zucchini starts out green then turns yellow. I read that this was due to lack of pollination. I think I need more than 1 plant?
Zucchinis have only 2 genders. FACT.
GREAT INFO MANY BLESSINGS ❤❤❤❤
If your stems get bored into just bury that area and it will re root
