minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink11•1 year agoThat’s a male flower. On female flowers you will see a small zucchini attached to the flower.
minus-squareNataliePortlandMlinkfedilink5•1 year agoYes but it’s common for the first few to be male, then you will get a mix of male and female. Plant looks great I think you’re going to get great zucchinis. Just keep them away from me I don’t like zucchini 😆
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•1 year agoI agree that a few males bloom first. Not the I don’t like them part 🙂
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 year agoSometime they can bloom with a little offset on the same plant. That’s why it’s good to have a few plants to create interactions between them. Female flowers can also be fertilised by hand.

Oh… Do they not bloom at the same time?
