If you want to get a good harvest of zucchini, you need to know some of the characteristics of growing this vegetable. First of all, this information will be useful for beginners.
Organic is the key to success
Zucchini grows best in well-fertilized beds with humus or rotting organic matter. When planting zucchini, a large amount of humus should be added to the soil. In this case, it will not be necessary to feed the plants additionally.
Fertile soil
If your soil is not particularly fertile, then you should feed zucchini every 11 to 13 days. The ideal solution would be a mullein or herb infusion. It is also important that the beds are in a warm hole. To create it, you need to dig a hole with 2 shovels, put grass at the bottom (nettle would be ideal) and cover it with soil. After this, you can plant the plants.
Simple but useful tips.
Store plucked or trimmed grass throughout the season and let it dry. In the fall, scatter it around the bed for the next planting of zucchini or cucumbers and then dig the bed. Thanks to this simple method, you will have a good harvest next year without the need for additional fertilizers.
