Zucchini is an easy-to-grow plant.
How to Grow Zucchini Properly
Grow zucchini in a well-lit area of the garden. The area should also be protected from the wind.
The vegetable will not grow well in the shade or with a strong wind.
As for the soil, neutral or slightly alkaline soil is ideal.
In addition, zucchini cannot be grown in places where other representatives of pumpkin crops were previously planted.
For example, pumpkin, cucumbers, melon, watermelons.
First, dig up the bed and make holes. Add fertilizer there according to the instructions.
Another important condition for growing zucchini is stable heat.
To grow the vegetable, the air temperature during the day should not be lower than +20°C, and the soil up to 15 degrees.
Choose fertile and well-drained soil for growing.
To retain moisture in very hot weather, you can use mulch made of sawdust, tree bark or straw.
Also, in hot weather, water the plant early in the morning or late in the evening.
How to water
Zucchini love water, so they need to be watered abundantly, but not too often.
Depending on the weather and soil conditions, water the plant 1-2 times a week.
However, it is worth remembering that zucchini does not tolerate over-watering of the soil.
Therefore, it is better to water the plants moderately to avoid stagnant water and rotting of the root system.
