Very Possible I guess. I didn't get the Zucchini or Squash from the COOP this year. This seed actual came from a big box, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is a bad hybrid.

Haha. I'll be sure to make the buzzing sounds. I did some light reading myself, and did find that there are male and female blooms on zucchini, so there is an issue if you only have male blooms and no females, or vice versa. They also mentioned pollinated them yourself with a QTip if you have no bees present.

There were some levels on inconsistency in rain early in the summer. A few days where we got rain very heavy, and then there a few dry weeks, then another heavy rain. Overall it hasn't been too bad though. I ruled the rain issue out because my squash was fine, but perhaps it could have had something to do with it. I think I will try to get a second crop in of the zucchini, just as you are doing with your beans. Hopefully I can get them in the ground in time so they have time to produce prior to frost.

I'm not sure a couple of bees may solve the problem. I remember once I had the same situation, but I just decided to seed other zucchini and that's all.

I see you are new,
FYI:
usually replying to posts that are over a year old, are a moot point as the problem is usually long since rectified.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
