Yellow Squash Rotting

Question

My squash plants (straight and crooked yellow) are huge. I have many young squash coming in but they are rotting, turning brown and mushy before maturing. They don’t seem like they are getting the hot sun due to the massive leaves from the plant covering them. Also, my crooked neck are tough and have an orange coloring. What do you suggest?
