Hi All,

As my Zucchini plants grow, I am getting a lot of
dead leaves (new ones too). Do I let mother nature
take its course on the dead leaves or do I cut them
off? And, if I cut them off, where do I cut them
at?

Many thanks,

If you are in the northern hemisphere, leave them be. They're not
hurting the plant or your garden. The season for zucchini will soon be
over. When the plant dies, remove any remaining squash and then chop
the rest of the plant into your compost pile.
