Sometimes zukes just quit. Has a lot to do with weather as far as I can tell. Are they still blooming? I’m so excited—we have one about 3 inches long. I’ll fry him up in a day or two with a vidalia!

I don’t think I’ll ever make it to retired. LOL

One of the three zukes is producing somewhat. I have had to hand pollinate them when the female flower opens - the Bumble Bees that are visiting the cukes just seem to by pass the zukes and the watermelon patch. But the female zuke flowers have been fewer and fewer. I did pick these two this morning.
