- Things you should know about Zucchini Squash that grows big in your Vegetable Food Garden. For growing and for cooking and eating, and for collecting seeds.
When I have an abundance I’ll shred mine up and freeze in 2 cup quantities and use it all winter in various dishes. And the 2 cups is perfect amount for zucchini bread! Makes it easy to hide it from the grands who ‘think’ they don’t like zucchini 🙂
That is great, I have done the same, Thank you so much, Robbie
I slice (1/4"thick) and dehydrate slices for later use. Could shred but I prefer the slices for a layered or lasagna type of meal.
Wow that tool cloth really is a winner!!!
Wow, an 8 lb 17 oz zucchini!!! My babies didn’t even weigh that much at birth!! They were just under 8lbs!!
That is a baby size zucchini!!! My mom used to grow them huge to for zucchini bread. My mom was like you in that her garden was always amazing. My grandmother was an amazing gardener also!! Me not so much but I’m learning.
FACT BASED tulle is a versatile cloth. Makes great potpourri sachets, fish netting & air hole covers for underarms in summer.
Very true, Thank you so much, Robbie
Tomato zuke garlic & onion soups. Yum. Add herbs to taste.

Thanks for this explanation.
Soo much information! wonderful video, thank you!
Hi Robbie... last year my herb garden went ballistic on my patio... way to much to consume.. fresh. So I started looking into "dehydrating" herbs. And experimented with other veggies: mushrooms, eggplant, zucchini ... potatoes, and yams all dehydrate like a dream. I slice or grated the zucchini. Both ways dehydrate well to vacuum bag... or seal in jars. Both are great for lasagna... or to make zucchini bread any time. I know Fresh is Best. But i sure love dry prepping what i grow to have access to "mine" all the time. I do not "can" either. I pickle some. But do think about dehydrating those gorgeous zucchini. I learned alot from other you-tuber videos ... like i learned alot from you. I tier my plants now so i maximize the "real estate" and they, the plants "co-op" the water... lol I have also made 2 solar hummingbird fountains and working on 2 more.
I love that you give information that is so detailed and different from what is normally provided.
This year I grew different varieties including the grey zucchini and so glad I did. It’s my new favorite. Great for grilling. It holds up well and the taste is amazing.
Any of the zucchini type are great, like you said, grilling, frying, baking, adding into other dishes, stuffing, baking cakes, pancakes....it is that they do not have a strong flavor like some other squash, and yes, those big ones can store for months, thanks, Robbie
Love watching your vlogs, catching up all of it or as much as I can :-) Wish we have the weather like you have in California, you can plant all year long, Ohio weather is not as good...Btw, I just noticed your hummingbird necklace, that is so cool :-)
Nice video
I slice open a small round watermelons from one end, I put the rest of the ball upside down in a large bowl, in fridge. It last longer and easy to slice as needed.
Love your necklace! You are so wise, how long have you been gardening?
FWIW, I have not yet watched this video.
That said: Based on the title and the thumbnail of this video, well, you can just IMAGINE what is rolling around in my head...😊
I want to try roasted zucchini seeds now.
Thanks Robbie you're always full of interesting facts, thanks to you I have over 8 zucchini plants growing on my deck! I definitely going to try roasting the seeds. Love your and your subscribers ideas here for recipe ideas! 🌿🍃🌿
Enjoy and Thanks so much, Robbie
Hi Robbie, where did you get that green screen? I currently have chicken wire around my raised beds, but find it difficult to go out and clean them out
Aren't large zucchinis classed as marrows - good for stuffing anyway : ) Trouble is when all this produce is abundant it's too damn hot to put the oven on! Another great video as usual Robbie. Thank you : )
Angela U car in sun becomes slow cooking oven in summer.
@@edieboudreau9637: ) Thanks Edie.
Angela U I also slice & dehydrate slices for later use instead of lasagna noodles and like scalloped potatoes.
That is way Gary told me, they grew marrows in Australia and they picked them big too, Thank you so much, Robbie
👍👍👍❤️❤️👍❤️
Great information, thank you for sharing! Where do you buy your buckets?
I usually buy my tubs from the thrift store, Walmart and other stores carry them, and they are cheap, thanks Robbie
Thank you! I am learning so much from you!
That’s a big one
it sure was, Thank you so much, Robbie
I treat the larger zucchini like green tomatoes. Southern fried.
Sounds Great! Thanks, Robbie
A great video! unbelievable size zucchini! I have a question about compose. I started a compose from my kitchen scraps. I did everything you told me. I just can't stand the smell from it. It sinks like a outside toilet! Am I doing something wrong, or what. Help! Thanks for sharing.
Sounds like it might be too wet, think of it as a plant, water as need, just cover the top with a thin layer of some sort of soil, from your yard, potting soil, even DIRT from your vacuum cleaner, just for now get it covered by soil or dirt so it will start to break down better and not smell. Thanks Robbie
@@RobbieAndGaryGardeningEasy Thank you.
I wish my zuccini plant would make zucchinis that would get pollinated. They are only an inch or so long and the flowers don't open up to get polinated. I even opened one flower up, tried to hand polinate. It didn't work. Any suggestions from anyone? I see Robbie's zucchinis and wish mine would do the same. The plants look decent. I love zucchinis! I need good advice. Thanks.🦋🦋🦋
Shirley...I take off the big leaves that cover the blooms...easier for the pollinators to find them...it won't hurt the plant at all...
Thanks Cara. I'm going to try😃
Shirley K sounds like you may have all male flowers. Need females to get cross pollination.
Edie. Thanks for the help but I do have female flowers they are very small. The flowers don't open up to get pollinated. I tried opening up a couple larger flowers and hand polinate but it didn't take. I'm not giving up. 🦋🦋🦋
Shirley K did you try a paint brush & & twirl in each flower on all plants twice before stopping or cleaning off the pollen?? If you did and it's very hot above 85* they won't take anyway. They have to be pollinated in right conditions. Also if too dry they won't take.
Robbie i watch all your videos i know that you talk about healthy stuff and all so my daughter told me that that pattern of plates you have here is toxic well i got rid of mine. What do you think
First I never cook or heat up plates which is where all the issues come from, here is what I found, so I 'd say the way we use them are find, AND I did has my Doctor to do a Toxic Blood test on me just for fun, to see if any toxic lead was found in me, and it came back NONE. Thanks so much, Robbie "The current limit for presence of leachable lead in order to satisfy
certain requirements is no more than 0.100 ppm (1 tenth of one part per
million) when obtained under test conditions. At no time have Corelle
Brands results exceeded levels permissible under the guidelines
mentioned above (which are believed to be the most stringent in the
world)."
Is are the findings on the Corelle Dinnerware we use, thanks so much: Non Toxic Dinnerware Corelle Livingware Winterfrost White Dinnerware set.
Corelle Vitrelle® glass is lightweight & break and chip resistant.
Corelle dishes are thin and translucent as fine china, yet extremely
stronger. It is great for every day use. I also like Lenox Opal Innocence Platinum Banded Bone China set.
Not all Lenox products are lead-free but this dinnerware set is. It is
elegant and great for formal dining. Bone china is lighter and thinner
but stronger and more durable than porcelain. I am glad I found these
dinnerwares that are safe from lead and cadmium. Since dinnerware is
used everyday, using a non toxic tableware is essential for me. I have
been using Corelle Livingware Winterfrost White Dinnerware set and it has been great so far.
can you roast those zucc seeds?
Yes once the seeds start to harden off, remember, pumpkin is a squash, and zucchini is a squash, Thank you so much, Robbie
Why is my eggplant fully flowering and not putting on no egg plants
too big. I fight with my husband for forty years!!!! I want to harvest small he says big I know I am right I researched it. 7 to 8 inches please!!! My son is in LA a doctor. I am sure if he bought a house, LOL after student loans, if he is lucky he can buy one, I am sure he will put a garden in. I just love gardening benefits etc. Too mad I am getting old and hurting.
You harvest the way you want, it is your garden, but my husband also grew up on a farm in Australia, where THERE they do harvest them BIG, they pick them and eat them the same day, the same I have done for years. I prefer them big for baking, roasting, for really everything, and the skin and all is very healthy. ONLY the big ones will store for the Winter so you can use them until Spring. Some people like the small ones, but they will only last a few days before they are no good to eat. I hope your Doctor Son does put in a garden, as the zucchinis in the stores are all heavy coated with wax, and those you do need to peel so not to eat the wax. Thanks, Robbie
They just hide in there and before you know it they’re huge!
THIS LADY IS NICE LADY, BUT WOULD NEVER PASS A EUROPEAN COOKING CLASS AND JACQUES WOULD HAVE A HEART ATTACK TO HEAR HER ADVICE. SORRY TO BE SO BLUNT.
G. E. D., Didn't your mother ever say, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything. I think that applies in this case. Robbie is an absolute treasure for gardeners. Her cooking advice is fine. Don't be so snooty!
