This is my first year growing zucchini, and I have to ask myself why I waited so long. We have 4 plants, one of which lives in a pot and one of which was the runt of the litter. These two are only mildly productive, but it doesn’t matter much since the other two are keeping us well fed.

So far we’ve harvested over 4kg of zukes and they don’t look like they’re slowing down. This monster alone weighed 1.2kg. I had left it to get big so I could have big slices for a moussaka. As it turned out, I only used a third of it for the moussaka! Which was delicious, if I may say so myself.
