How productive is zucchini?
Very. Just one or two plants can supply a household all summer, so plant only what you can use and be ready to harvest often.
When and how do I plant zucchini seeds?
Sow directly after the last frost, once the soil is warm, about an inch deep in full sun. They sprout in about 7 to 10 days.
How much space does zucchini need?
Give the big, bushy plants room, spacing them about 24 to 36 inches apart, or sow in hills and thin to the strongest seedlings.
How long until I can pick zucchini?
Usually about 50 to 60 days. Pick the squash young and tender, around 6 to 8 inches long, for the best flavor.
Why should I harvest zucchini often?
Frequent picking keeps the plants producing and stops the fruit turning into large, seedy marrows. At the peak, check every day or two.
How do I prevent powdery mildew?
Water at the base to keep the leaves dry, give plants good airflow and full sun, and avoid overhead watering, especially late in the day.
Q: “What is your shelf life? What conditions to store?”
