Large leaves and no flowers could be from lack of phosphorous in the soil so having a soil test and feeding your zucchini with a slow release plant food like Osmocote will get the squash back on track by promoting more blooms. Zucchini also needs lots of sun and if planted in a cool or shaded spot the plants will not perform so there will be no blooms and no squash. Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
