A high yielding variety of zucchini with deep dark green skin and creamy-white flesh.
Zucchini plants prefer a sheltered position in full sun and a fertile soil that holds plenty of moisture. We recommend using organic Pure Magic Compost to enrich your soil and assist with moisture retention. Keep the soil constantly moist by watering around the plants - not over the foliage - whenever needed. Don’t forget to feed your plant with Fruit n Citrus fertiliser to promote plenty of flowers and fruit.
Harvest zucchini when they are 10-12cm long. At this length they are at their sweetest and most tender. Regular picking when they are small ensures a long cropping period over several months.
Apart from the usual benefits of mulching, such as retaining soil moisture and keeping weeds at bay, straw mulches are fantastic for boosting the quality, water holding capacity and nutrition of your soil.
Lucerne is rich in potassium, calcium, iron and folic acid. It also increases the nitrogen in the soil. It is the quickest mulch to break down and improve the soil and would benefit from reapplication every six months.
