We did not get a single cucumber last year and very few zucchini. This year we have gotten at least one ๐Ÿ’•

It probably could of gone a day or two longer but it was crispy and mildly sweet. I see another on the plant that should be ready in a few days.

Some of the other plants look like they have some fruit set too. I think this is marketmore and was a start we bought. I don't believe any of the seed starts have caught up.

very few zucchini

I was not under the impression such a thing was even possible!

All jokes aside, it's a wonderful feeling when last year's dud is this year's success. May the cucurbit gods continue to smile upon you.

I think the universe knew I was taking it for granted...
