Zucchini and squash - from seed to harvest
Pumpkin crops are one of the main crops in our gardens. Especially popular, after cucumbers, of course, are zucchini. They are used fresh, for storage and, of course, for preparing blanks, including everyone's favorite squash caviar.
The cultivation of zucchini begins, of course, from seeds. Their choice is a matter of taste and experience of each gardener. I buy traditional varieties from which I can then harvest my seeds and not buy them for the next season.
But in the package, not all seeds are of high quality, it is clear that one seed is rotten. This is why I prefer my own seeds.
The first shoots of zucchini are a great joy. Since the appearance of a real sheet, they are already developing rapidly. The main thing is to water!
The first flower in the zucchini is joy. In a couple of weeks, the first fetus will be.
But in the life of zucchini there are also unpleasant moments - a very dangerous disease - apical rot. It can ruin 90% of the crop.
But now all the works and worries are beginning to bear fruit. Zucchini now - just have time to process
Besides zucchini, I love squash. At least for their incredible beauty.
Patisson will decorate any assortment in a jar. And its crunch and pleasant taste will delight you in winter.
Here it is, the result of labor - zucchini, pumpkins and squash.
