If the ground is very wet and soggy this will cause the zucchini plants to rot. The only thing you can try to do now to save the plant is to get some good top soil and mulch and pack it around the plant to try and dry it out some. Stop watering it right now until the soil is really dry.

You can try growing the zucchini on stakes or on large tomato cages. It lifts up the plant and prevents rot.
