Re: April Showers bring May Flowers...

A couple years ago I planted a packet of zucchini seeds(25), I had 20 plants that issued forth vast quantities of cucurbita pepo from June until October. I had a table in front of the house with a FREE sign. I still had more. Stopped watering in August and it rained. I even brought some to the range with my .22 rife, trying to exercise the green demons.
I learned my lesson and only plant a few now. I prefer yellow summer squash.

Zucchini: Summer's Abundant Treasure
by Roberta Roberti
Right around the time -- about late June -- when the days start getting longer and lazier and the aroma of grass seems to linger in the air, something happens in zucchini patches everywhere. Beautiful golden flowers start budding, heralding the birth of new, beautiful zucchini. Copious amounts of zucchini. Come summertime, they appear in abundance, much to the bewilderment of many home farmers. And perpetuating this universal truth is the fact that August 8th is Sneak Some Zucchini Onto Your Neighbor's Porch Day. Yes, that's the day you are encouraged to unload all that wonderful squash you don't know what to do with onto your unsuspecting next-doors.
