Dear Gary, I just want to thank you for the abundance of knowledge you share with us. I have learned so much from you and I also want to mention that you are the only one that IS NOT about having the camera in his face constantly like everyone else. It is so much better to watch the plants and see the actual interaction with them rather than watch someone's face as they go on talking for an eternity. You are an actual teacher and it is clear you want to share and teach in the most effective way. I just wanted to let you know how great this channel is and how much I really love it (you). Thanks again.

Another great way to use zucchini is to make flour out of them. We grate them and spread the zucchini over our dehydrator trays and dry them out. Once dry it gets put into a food processor and turned into flour. It makes great flour and is used at a ratio to regular flour of 1 to 1. The products don't rise as much but is a healthy alternative when needed for health reasons.

Thanks for this video. I have my 1st garden this year, and have been so confused over what to do and how to care for it. This video helped me a whole lot! More than others I've watched. My squash and zucchini are growing better than anything else I planted, well the beans are doing pretty good too. I noticed some squash bugs about a week ago, so I've been on here trying to figure out what to do, but I absolutely hate bugs, and have been wanting to just run far away from the whole garden, LOL! But I'm determined to make this garden work. Really enjoyed the video & it was very helpful. Thanks again!

I love your channel. Thank you for the information from your indoor seed starting series because you saved us quite a bit. Six Black Krims, 6 Brandywines, 10 cukes, 50 peas, and many sweet peas. Oh yes, 4 zukes are too many for 2 people, 200 potato onions (doing wonderfully), 150 garlic (I think I got greedy and planted them too close but they are doing great!). Needless to say, my spring garden is over and the summer garden is in full swing. My husband and I love watching your channel and every time you mentioned using something OTHER than "organic" fertilizer or anything... I cringed because I know you'll get crushed in the comment!

I've found that Squashs and zucchini are easier to grow and manage in Totes. I love my Tote garden, way less bug issues. Gary I spray my cucumbers and squash with the Dr bronners peppermint Castile soap after pruning to cover up smell. I started with 4 squash plants and now have one after the vine borer destroyed my other 3. So far my last plant shot up to 6 feet after pulling those plants. I finally see my first female flower today 😀

The Japanese beetles are TOUGH, and Sevin can be pretty harsh, but if the other dust doesn't work, I know you'll have massive success with Japanese Beetle traps. They look like hourglass shaped bags, hang them a little ways away from your plants and soon they'll be 5lbs heavy with bugs.

My first planting of zucchini and squash just weren't productive and I replaced them with different varieties and some extra plants. Now it appears we have much healthier plants and are probably going to have a lot of zucchini and squash, more than we will be able to use and freeze. But that's a good problem to have with your garden. My 1st zucchini produced 3 different shaped zucchini 1 regular shape, 2 bulbous at the blossom end like a squash and 3 bulbous at the stem end. Plus most of them weren't fully pollinated. With half of July still left I had plenty of time to move on and try something else.
