Zuchinni Yellow on the Ends

[jimmykx250]

My zuchinni's are doing great this year 2 plants and I have already harvested over a dozen. I was pulling a few and noticed a couple of 5" ones that looked yellow on the end for about 2 inches or so??? Whats that mean? One more thing- I tend to hold off harvesting until I'm ready but I cant keep up. Does letting them get 8 to 12 inches effect the taste? Is there a good way to store these guys so I could enjoy them during the winter? I do have a vacuume machine for food storage, could I just put them in a bag & suck the air out and stick them in the freezer? I know I'm full of questions but I have faith in all the very excellent gardners that seem to frequent this web site. Thanks for all your responces to my past posts too!

your vaccume idia sounds ok, thats what I would do, just put them in a frezzer, and if you get to many, you can always find a food donation center, like red cross or something
