Can you tell me why my Zucchini have yellow leaves? If I use the oil will that solve the problem? I have 1130 plants that produce 30 kg. Is that good for the plant?

Request: What Causes Yellow Leaves On Squash Plants? (08/27/2009)
The lower leaves on my squash plants (winter squash, zucchini, summer) are turning yellow. Does anyone have any experience with gardening that could tell me if this is a water issue or a nutrient shortage or excess?

Too much water, especially in cool weather, is supposed to cause yellow leaves. You might try getting your squashes off the ground by putting them up on flower pots, that works for watermelons. (07/02/2007)

Same problem. Put them in the garden too soon. Been really rainy and cool this May. Cut off the yellow and hope for some sunny warm days. (05/23/2008)
