Mad at my squash

Oh pickles as my 2yr old says! My squash PLANTS are growing, but SLOWLY and still only male blossoms opening up. But that's okay because the "Plan B" squash seeds I planted last week have popped up and I still have time to get some squash in before the end of the season. I'm so mad at the first bed of disappointing squash plants I could just dig them up and toss them in the compost pile! Still borderline ready to "go there" with those squash plants for sure!

But I do have 7 HUGE healthy so far zucchini plants that are up to my mid thigh and has big long beautiful male blossoms flowering out as of tonight! There were none opened up as of this AM, but on the way back from choir practice I ran by one more time and we're blossoming in the zucchini patch :D  The patty pan squashes are still growing rather well, so we'll see where they take us!  But I really would like to harvest some zucchini and squash darn it!
