Having never grown Beth Alpha, how many fruits can I expect per plant?

Cucumber Beth alpha in GH 22 + 6 tiddlers - 28 Finished
2 plants - Courgette Partenon in GH = 11 Finished
Courgette = 105 + 6 = 111 Finished probably!!
Trombones = 0
Patty pans = 3
Butternuts = 2 little ones the size of apples and a few more to come.

Not as good a year as some but more than enough to keep me fed!

Total harvest
Courgette de nizza = 22 final total
Courgette gold zucchini = 14 final total
Courgette zucchini = 49 final total
Courgette black beauty dark fog = 3 final total
Cucumbers Beth alpha = 72 final total
Courgette tromboncino = 23 final total
Scallop squash = 4 final total
Summer squash yellow crookneck = 3 final total
Pumpkin unknown ( probably small sugar or a cross) = 1 final total
Spaghetti squash = they will ripen at some point...........hopefully!

Mark I had 3 plants and they produced 25 cucs I’ve had better in previous years though.
Last year I had 36 cucs.

And still the monster courgette Verde keeps giving! I was quite excited when I saw 3 degrees on the thermometre this morning. I fear this plant may be hardy ...

That is so impressive PP

Can I ask how many plants were in each variety that broke double figures please?
