My zuchinni are starting to bloom

Good for u, hope they produce well. There are so many things u can do w/them. hope u are doing well.

LOVE, LOVE zucchini..such a versatile veggie...raw, cooked, pies, cookies, cakes..! And yes, in season, they grow with abandon in my garden, 'cuz I am never at a loss how to use them! It is so strange tho, seeing your plants just growing, and mine have given their last hurrah! We have a very wet, beginning to the season this year, and all of my cucurbit family plants suffered from blights and molds, so it was a real struggle to keep them alive and productive! REally was a bad year for many plants and so my harvest was NOT as good as usual! Sadly, being the whole area was afflicted....the price of all cukes, squashes, etc....is extremely high! So I will only be able to include them in my diet as a treat! HAPPY growing! Take care and HUGZ!

I find it interesting that the seeds could get jealous. I like the way you described that! That will show them to not come up when they were planted! Have you started getting any zucchini yet? How long does it take for them to start producing once they are planted? I hope you get lots of good vegetables out of your garden! Have a great weekend!!!

I'm so envious! Your zucchini plant looks so very healthy. It's still winter here and, although the temperatures this winter have been extremely mild, it's still too cold to start anything at this point. However, I have started some new herbs to add to my kitchen windowsill collection because I'm so very anxious to get started. Around the end of this month I should be able to start some veggie seeds inside. Seeing your gorgeous plant growing has only added to my impatience. Most of my bulb flowers have sprouted already and they normally don't show themselves until mid- to late-March at the earliest. This mild winter has really confused them. I hope the sporadic freezes haven't hurt them any and they have a chance to blossom. I'm also a bit worried that because we've had such an unusual winter are we also going to have an unusual growing season? Since moving to this area I've put in a lot of work each year only to get rather disappointing results. The only things that seem to grow really well are those I have growing in containers on my deck. I'll be trying zucchini myself this year and, if I do manage to get anywhere near the awesome results you have, I'll take photos to share with you. Ever since you posted that recipe and photo of your tomato and zucchini dish I've wanted to try it. Hopefully I can this year.

your zuchinni plant looks so good. I haven't done any gardening so far since I never have enough time for it but I would love to do it and grow my own food in my garden. My parents grow tomatoes, green chili and coriander in their garden. I want to do it too this summer...Anyways, good luck with the zuchinnis...
