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,

Best burn them. They are lousy with mould (odium) which will only over
winter in your garden.
