White Zucchini? What happened to my zucchini plants this year? This is my 4th year having a garden where I grow zucchini and this year I have faced a challenge. Usually my garden will produce more green zucchini than I can handle and I end up having to spend a whole day chopping and freezing zucchini for the next year. This year my plants are not producing nearly as much zucchini, but the one thing I have discovered is that half my zucchini plants are white!! At first I checked with my seed packets to make sure I didn’t plant some type of other squash there that I did not remember doing because I had never had seen white zucchini.
I have white zucchini too!
This exact same thing happened to me. I have planted zucchini for many years but this year I have normal dark green zucchini as well as the white ones. The white ones are growing on a separate vine however. They look exactly the same so I plan to use them as I wouldn't normal zucchini.
We got one whither one this year but it skin if thicker than any of my green ones . Saving the seed to see if we can get more white one next year
I am getting white ones that look and feel hard like gourds, as well as the normal green ones.
Me too. Actually I am getting as many white as green. I am going to try them in bread
Ok it's happening to a few of us, be interesting to try them. Cheers happy growers ✌

This is my first year growing Zucchini. I planted the Caserta Heirloom seeds. My Zucchini is white as well. I though perhaps it was not ripe but it is huge.
