I planted my zucchini from seed, and it's coming up well, but the leaves are slightly yellow. Same with my basil plants which I bought in the nursery. Anyone know why this happens?
Also, a pesky rabbit is nibbling my basil leaves and bellpepper leaves. What repels rabbits? I have a fance around the garden, but I'm sure it gets under it pretty easily.

It depends on the rabbit. I tried hot pepper to stop my bunny from chewing on mouldings but didnt phase him in the least apparently he liked hot pepper. There are repellents you can buy some are predator urine, and a product that did work on my rabbit called Keep Off made by four paws. I don't know if its organic or not, but its safe around pets. It smells like cilantro which I dislike as well so it works on me too, lol
