squash

I am growing crookneck, straightneck and zucchini squash. Planted about 3 weeks ago in good topsoil raised garden bed. Plants are about 15-18 inches wide and all are blooming. My problem is all are bearing only male blossoms. What is my problem and how can I correct it? Thank you.

Generally, they will produce mostly male (non-fruiting) blossoms early in the season, which die off, and will gradually start to produce more female blossoms as the season progresses. Give it some time and you will see it start fruiting.
