I got lots of yellow flowers that may or may not turn into zucchini and cukes.
Due to the drought, I water them by hand every day, but I guess it isn’t enough.
Oh Well.

Hang in there !
The first flowers from Curcubits are males (stamin) - needed for pollination.
The next set of flowers should be female (ova)- which will develop into fruit.
The female flowers should be slightly more bulbous at the base of the flower, and will develop into the fruit.
