Why do young zucchinis turn yellow while on the bush?

Young zucchinis turn yellow while still on the bush primarily due to a lack of pollination. When the flowers are not adequately pollinated, the developing fruit may not receive the necessary nutrients, leading to yellowing. Additionally, nutrient deficiencies in the soil or environmental stressors such as extreme temperatures or water issues can also contribute to this discoloration. Proper care and attention to pollination can help ensure healthy green zucchinis.
