Courgette question

I've been growing courgettes for the first time this year, from seed. They got off to a good start and have made really healthy plants, whicha re flowering quite prolifically now. However, I notice most of the flowers seem to be male ones, with very few actually courgettes forming. Is this usual? Should I be picking off the male flowers to allow the plants to concentrate energy on producing fruits?

I thought the same but they are cropping well, you will probably only have two or three female ones at any one time however as you pick them more will appear.

 

Just like women eh!!!
