Zucchinni

Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

Hi all,

I have yet to harvest a zucchinni, due first of all, to powdery mildew (which 
now seems to be under control) and second, to the fact that while some little 
fruit have formed, when they get about 2" long they turn yellow and shrivel 
up.  I know someone  said earlier that could be due to inadequate 
pollination, however, I've got plenty of bees and plenty of blooms.  Is it 
possible that the hot (95+) weather for the last 3 weeks is causing it?  At 
this point should I just pull up the plants and give up on them, or should I 
wait for the weather to cool down in hopes they might still produce?  (Around 
here a "cool down" could be six weeks away!) Should I plant new plants and 
hope for a fall harvest?

Thanks,
Juliana
