Its a good idea to trim and leaves that are showing signs of powdery mildew (powdery white spots) or damaged leaves,other than that its not needed.

They are a vine so let them spread out or up a trellis. Tomatoes are a tree and don't have to be trimmed.

You pick it, the size you want. An example is - zucchini 3 to 8-9 inches . Marrow 12-18

Of my 4 zuchini plants brought as seedlings only one has green fruit the other 3 have an abundance of fruit but they are more a pale white colour, are they still okay to eat.

Go to website like Boondie seeds and look at the different varieties of zukies. You should be able to eat them. Probably they are a hybrid and they have thrown back to parent in the cross. Do you remember the name of them?

The plant will have male and female flowers. If no bees in your area hand pollinate in the morning. Look up the internet how to do it.

When planting seeds, which end of the seed should be facing the surface?
