Jacqueline,
 If you have been reading the posts, I have been keeping a map.Are you 
from Japan, or living there temporarily? It is exciting to hear from 
veggie list members so far away from me. How much rain this summer? 
 I agree with Steve, you probably need more plants to pollinate your 
zuchini. Could be all the rain drowned out what you planted.
