Mostly yellow leaves and over half of the fruit rots off. Even slugs got into the new soil.

I love bat guano, but hadn't found any locally. I will website it and see if someone has it in my region. Thank you again for the advice.

That way you get a bigger back yard for a garden. Front yard gardens I've seen make the house look cluttered and quite unappealing to the eyes.

Fertilize every 5 days and water daily . one advantage I have is that there are bees all over the backyard . Every morning I watch them do there thing , my little helpers . Plant some flowers between them if possible. If you see a praying mantis in your yard , catch it and place in on the zucchini plant . It will stay and eat the bugs that invade the zucchini, ( I have photos of this ) ........awesome .

Thanks! I just need to fertilize the darn thing more often, because I hear it getting pollinated all the time by the neighbor's honey bees. Luckily I already planted in a 5 g. pot. <br />By the way it is a bush baby variety more easily grown in a container, for those of you that also container garden.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4204899635347722394.post-37662102651294210572013-07-12T14:11:09.112-07:002013-07-12T14:11:09.112-07:00I have had this problem with my zucchini now for t...I have had this problem with my zucchini now for the last three seasons. I use to grow huge plants with wheel barrows full of squash, now I get yellow, stunted rotten four inch ugly squash. I will try the pollination and add more nitrogen.
