Courgette Plant - Why only male flowers?

Glasgow, United Kingdom

Hi there. Can anyone suggest why my courgette plant is only producing male flowers. There are no female flowers/fruit. It's on my window ledge in a pot which is probably a bit too small for it, if I'm honest, but it is looking really healthy. We've had a poor summer weatherwise. Is that perhaps to blame? Or the pot size? I've seen plenty of plants elsewhere in the city that do have fruit. Any advice most welcome!

Thanks.

Maturity. Your plant is still too young to produce fruit. Put it in a bigger pot (20 liters or more) and give it a couple more weeks.
