I just bought a small zucchini plant from Lowe's, and now that I'm home and ready to transplant it, I'm seeing a bunch of things happening with it. I'm not sure if this is actually one zucchini plant or if there are multiple vines sprouting up. Should I cut some of them down? As a new gardener, I'm really looking for any advice on what to do next. Thanks!

It looks like you've got about 6 or 7 separate plants there. I'd recommend separating them and planting each one individually, giving them some space. That way, they'll have room to grow and thrive!
From what I can see, it looks pretty normal! It could definitely be a single plant that’s just got lots of growth. I would suggest keeping an eye on it and maybe even training it to grow vertically. Once it establishes a bit more, you'll have a better idea if you need to trim it back. There's really no wrong approach here—just let it grow and learn along the way!
Thank you! I think giving it some time to see how it develops is a smart move. I really appreciate your help!
Thanks for the advice!
