I’m a bit concerned because our squash, pumpkins, and zucchini don’t seem to be developing any female flowers. I saw a few small zucchinis a couple of weeks ago, but they’re mysteriously gone now. Maybe we have a garden visitor?

I know that female flowers come later than males, but the squash and pumpkins have all been flowering for over a month now. There is one small pumpkin that’s been growing. It’s possible that the heat has been keeping the females away – it’s been pretty warm and dry lately, and we’ve been needing to water quite a bit. Hopefully they will come soon – I’m expecting a lot of pumpkins and winter squash this fall.
