Why do my Zuchini squash not form properly

Question

A friend gave me a zuchini plant in the spring.. It was in a container and said it was a container squash but I planted it in my veg garden. It has grown to be enormous. It gets many blossoms, male and female but we have not picked any. The female blossoms form into baby squash but only get about as big as a little finger, then curl up and die. Is it not supposed to form squash or am I doing something wrong. Too much water, not enough water, lack of minerals. WHAT?
