The plants are large and healthy. They get sun up until noon and they get plenty of water and fertilizer. The blossoms just shrivel up and die without bearing any veggies.

I grow organically, so no pesticides. I use a soap mixture and have had no pests or diseases. Blossoms only fall off after blooming for at a week or so.

Check under the leaves to see if there are little black bumps in a cluster(neer the veins) if there are you have squash bugs (stink bugs) they cause the flowers to fall off too soon and will kill your plant.Other than that ,It could be too hot (110 or more) which is stressing them.Have you sprayed them with bug killer??

I don't know why you don't get any zucchinis, but did you ever eat the flower? They are very good, dip them in flour and fry them in oil about three minutes on each side.

how many plants? 1 or more? are they spaced according to package. They are not polinating correctly and you may need to plant inbetween so they pollinate correctly
