Sowing
Sowingperiod: Sow in April, in well-lit pots. Make sure the ambient temperature is at least 12°C, as the seeds need heat to germinate. Place the seeds on the edge of the bucket to prevent rotting in case of excess humidity.
Watering: Keep the potting soil moist with a sprayer, but take care not to exceed it to avoid rotting the seeds.
Cultivation
Transplanting: Transplant the plants into the ground from mid-May, in a sunny spot at a distance of around 1 m in all directions.
Care: Pinch stems to stimulate plant development. Hoe and weed regularly to eliminate weeds. Mulch the base to limit weed growth and conserve soil moisture.
Watering: Water at the base of the plant in summer, avoiding wetting the foliage.
Good combinations
Avoid potatoes: Avoid planting zucchini near potatoes.
Beans and cabbage: Zucchini appreciates the proximity of beans and cabbage.
Common problems
Lack of flowers or fruit: If your zucchini plant doesn't produce flowers or fruit, it may be due to high temperatures or a lack of pollination. Attract pollinators by sowing floral mixes nearby.
Harvest
Zucchini can be harvested around 2 months after sowing. Pick when young to avoid bitterness.
