Re: Trellising Zucchini?

OK, you guys have finally convinced me.  I wasn't going to do zuchinni
because I have vivid memories of every zuchinni grower I know desparately
trying to give it away...Besides the fact that this is my first garden.
But sauteed baby zukes sounds awesome!!!

In that case, I live in zone 7--Nashville, TN.  What I have started from
seed (lettuce, spinach, pea pods, peppers--are in the ground and have
survived for a week now.  The nights do get below fifty still so I'm
holdin out on transplanting my basil and putting in tomato plants so far.
What should I do about zukes?  start seeds now?  I'm very impatient for
"free" food.  Or by plants when I get my tomatoes in a week or so. (Next
year I'm going to try starting heirloom tomatoes.)

TIA
