Description

F1 hybrid. Round, dark green, ball-shaped fruits with white burst. Good for stuffing. Young fruits are especially tender and tasty. Bushy growth. Not climbing.

F1 Hybrid

Not frost resistant

Growing tips

Germination after 7-14 days at 18-22°C. Harden off before planting. Likes warm, wind-protected locations. Sensitive to frost. Several plants pollinate each other. Harvest regularly so that new fruits are formed continuously. Fertilize and water regularly. Follow crop rotation. Home-grown seeds are strongly discouraged for zucchini because the toxic bitter substance cucurbitacin can form. Mixed cultivation with borage promotes pollination. Pumpkins and zucchinis of the same species can interbreed, zucchini can become bitter and inedible or poisonous (due to so-called curcurbitacins).
