I am sure you know who productive and beneficial this summer squash is. It might be the most useful vegetable I have ever come across!
After taking off, it doesn’t stop producing; if anything-the more zucchini we eat as individuals or in recipes like spaghetti sauce (or any other pasta alternative), then healthier our lives are going to become because of them.
Zucchinis are a versatile veggie that you can grow in just about any climate.
And now it’s time to discover all of the ways zucchini is awesome!
PLANTING
Zucchini is a versatile plant that requires well-drained, fertile soil. You should sow the seeds outdoors when your temperature reaches 60 F for about seven days after last frost to ensure it has enough time in order grow without being scorched by sun exposure or chilled by nightfall!
Give them plenty of room so they can spread out and fill up all available space with their vines – at least three feet between each row on an 8 ft x 12 ft field. However if there isn’t much yard space in your garden, then just go ahead and put trellis systems.
WATERING AND FERTILIZING
Zucchini loves the ground, but it also needs some care. In order to avoid disease problems make sure you follow these steps: water from below and spray plants with compost tea 2 weeks after they come up- and when their first flowers appear as well!
PESTS AND DISEASES
Squash vine borers can cause plants to wilt and ooze a sticky sap when cut. Powdery mildew on the other hand is white, powder like substance that attacks leaves causing them to turn brown or even dry up completely.
HARVESTING
The summer is a great time to enjoy all of your garden’s produce. Picking zucchini on a regular basis will provide you with more zucchini plants.
