Disappearing Zucchini Blossoms
What is snapping the flowers off my zucchini plants? We have a 2 ft. fence around it.

Most likely squirrels. Don't rule out snails and slugs. They are working on my tomatoes here. Got ORTHO Slug and Snail stuff to use. The S & S are in the larvea stage, and don't look like the Aug/Sept shape of S & S. If you are rural where the gofers are, they could be doing it too. Had them all, finally got the fencing up to keep the rabbits out.

The blossoms on my zucchini form great and look healthy, but look like they have been cut off just below the blossom during the night.
