Squash

This is the type of yellow squash that I am growing this year and the type that I accidentally planted 12 plants vs 6 plants. 'Zephyr' squash is a straightneck summer squash, it is interesting since it is 2/3's yellow and a 1/3 green. Sometimes you get a green/yellow/green pattern as well.
It is producing fairly well, as long as the bees can get to the flowers from between all the leaves. (One of the disadvantages of close plantings.) As you can see it has quite a few blossoms getting ready even with a few fruit almost ready to pick. It is something a little different which I like to try. I did notice what I think was powdery mildew on a couple of the leaves of one of them. I am not 100% sure since it is a little early and it has been to dry really for that too develop. Very early in the season for that as well. Hopefully it is just my imagination.
