Sowing Instructions:
Sow seeds directly outdoors after the last frost date.
Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 24–36 inches apart in well-drained, fertile soil.
For an early start, seeds can be sown indoors 3–4 weeks before transplanting.
Sunlight & Location:
Requires full sun (6–8 hours daily).
Choose a warm location with good air circulation to prevent mildew.
Watering & Care:
Water consistently, keeping the soil moist but not soggy.
Apply mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Fertilize with a balanced vegetable fertilizer every 2–3 weeks.
Harvesting:
Harvest zucchini when fruits are 6–8 inches long for best flavor and tenderness.
Regular picking encourages continuous production.
