Sorry, didn't mean to imply that "fertilizer" was the problem; rather the flower from which the fruit formed was incompletely fertilized. Happens often with the first fruits of the season when it's cool and there aren't as many pollinators around. Hope that makes more sense. I'm far from an expert, but I've grown my share of zucchinis over the years and yearly see both of the problems I described.
