yellow squash

Question

Our squash plants are only about 6-8 inches tall, but are already blooming small flowers and putting on tiny squash. Shouldn’t they be larger before blooming? Should we remove these “premature” squash? What are we doing wrong?

Answer 1

No worries, your plant is doing what it is suppose to! It is growing female blossoms right now, they are generally close to the center of the plant.
