Zucchini Flowers Falling Off
I have noticed that the zucchini flowers are falling off at the stem. It
looks almost as if a vermin nibbled them off, yet I know that's not the case since one of them came off in my hand. It's a very clean break. What could be the problem? |

It's a very clean break. What could be the problem? Squash bears seperate male and female blooms. it is common for the boys to appear first. The boys form pollen and after awhile drop off, lasting just long enough for the busy bees to transfer the pollen to the girls. Often the girls are late to the party so the early boys do not get to be daddies. once the girls do arrive though it's party time. |
