Default Too small squash - why aren't they growing?

"David Hare-Scott" expounded:

For the squash to have fruit before
the flower it would have to be parthenocarpic


I think you're misunderstanding what they're saying. My squash also
have little fruits beneath the female flower - makes them easily
differentiated from the male flowers. True, they aren't fertilized
yet, but they are there.
