why do i always end up with a mountain of zucchini every summer?

Every single year, I swear I’ll plant fewer zucchini seeds. But then I see those tiny green sprouts and think, “What if some don’t make it?” Spoiler: they all make it. Suddenly, my garden looks like a zucchini jungle, and I’m handing out squash to neighbors like it’s Halloween candy. The trick I’ve learned is to pick them small and often. They taste way better, and you don’t end up with those giant baseball bats hiding under the leaves. Plus, I started shredding and freezing extra zucchini for bread and muffins later. It’s wild how much you can get from just a couple of plants. Gardening always surprises me, but honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. There’s nothing like the feeling of harvesting your own food, even if it’s way more than you planned. #gardening #zucchini #backyardgarden
