| A little slower to get going than other zucchini, but once it does you have plenty. Keep them picked at 4-5" for best results. These hold up well to cooking, they don't turn to mush like other zucchini do. Last year I cut them into strips and sauteed them up with onions, peppers and fajita seasoning and served in a corn tortilla with the fixins'. They were a great alternative to chicken or beef. |

| Have been growing this variety for about a dozen years. One of the first to pick, good taste, very high yield, unusual green tip on yellow fruit, on short vines |

| I'm growing this for the first time this year. I'm so impressed! I have 2 plants and I'm picking about 3 every other day. Cucumber beetles seem to have gotten the best Eight ball, but these are planted right next to Eight Ball and are unaffected. Zephyr is as beautiful as depicted in the catalogs and effortless to grow. |

| Wonderful squash. Excels in every way. Although it is not advertised as being resistant to powdery mildew, it survived unscathed while Sun Ray, a yellow squash supposedly resistant to PM, succumbed to it. PM is a problem for us in late summer-early fall, so Zephyr is a great choice for the west coast. It is doing as well this spring in a five-gallon container as it did in our community farm plot last fall. |

| I echo all of the positive things said in the other reviews. This is a great variety. I got excellent results by sowing them directly in 4" pots under regular shop lights about 3.5 weeks before planting in the garden. This early growth indoors during the first few weeks was truly vigorous, much more so than when plants are direct seeded into the garden. It got the plants off to a great start. |
