HOW TO GERMINATE ZUCCHINI SEEDS
Plant zucchini seeds directly into the soil, 1 inch deep and about 2-3 feet apart. You can also start them indoors in biodegradable peat pots 4-6 weeks before the last frost date. If starting indoors, use biodegradable peat pots to prevent root disturbance during transplantation. Zucchini plants prefer well-draining soil with a pH level of 6-7. Water the seeds regularly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely, which can hinder seed germination. Zucchini seeds germinate best in warm temperatures between 70 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit (21-32°C). The seeds typically take around 5 to 10 days to grow.
CARE FOR ZUCCHINI PLANTS AFTER GERMINATION
Transplant the seedlings into the garden once they are about 3-4 inches tall and have developed a few true leaves. Water the plants regularly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Zucchini plants require a lot of water, especially during fruit production. Zucchini plants need total sun exposure for optimal growth and fruit production. Apply a balanced fertilizer every 3-4 weeks to promote healthy development and fruit production. Zucchini plants thrive in well-draining soil and full sun exposure. Watch for common pests such as squash bugs and cucumber beetles. Use organic pest control methods such as insecticidal soap or neem oil to control infestations.
