For the past 3 years I have been trying to grow summer/winter squash, pumpkins, cucumbers and other similar plants. With no luck. They appear to grow and produce health vines. However, the female fruit never matures and in some instances the blossom never opens before it dries up and falls off.
The zucchini for instance will grow vines 4 to 6 feet in length and the young fruit will grow to 1 to 3 inches in length before it turns yellow and falls off and the blossom never opens.
Six years ago I gave away a lot of squash from 10 plants. Last year I had 10 plants and got 1 squash. I do shift the planting location in my garden from far right to center to far left on successive years.

I want to know what is happening to my plants, any idea?
