Im thinking its Zucchini or something

I think its got Blossom End Rot but it doesnt look like the pics i see. If it is this then it might be a lack of calcium (seasol be ok for this?)

Any help

Looks like a Zucchini to me. Sorry can't help with fixing the problem...is it just water rot?

yup - looks like zuccini with blossom end rot to me. But check for eggs and small holes at the base of the stalk to ensure you do not have a squash vine borer.

Looks like an unfertilised zuccini to me.
Quite common and nothing to worry about [unless its every one on the plant]
Some ppl recommend hand fertilising by breaking off the male flower and doing unmentionable things with the female flower. Maybe its exciting for the flowers but doesnt seem to make much difference in number of fruit produced

hahah yeah im going to try that tomorrow Bushy

Thanks went to look at the zuc this arvo and it snapped off the plant

Went out this morning had a look at all the flowers that were open they were all male....what a bunch of pricks

Stuff em

play this to them

Anyone know.... weed, or worthy??

Its an oyster plant, ancanthus mollis, has edible rhizomes.

lots of different plants in this family, most look nothing like this one.

Thanks Bushy..
