We have a lot of bees in the yard and garden. I purposely let the clover take over in a large area near the garden to attract them and it has worked. They are all over. I see the small Zucchini starting to grow, they are firm, but when they get to 3 - 4 inches, they turn to mush.

Sounds like they don't get pollinated - likely due to low bee incidence. NRaleighLiberal Jul 2013 #1
