What makes this variety special
This mix works great in three situations: you have a small vegetable garden (3–4 zucchini plants are enough for a family), you want to test varieties (you’ll see which suits your taste and growth best), you value visual effects (colorful zucchinis look fantastic on the plate). After the season, you’ll know which variety to buy in a full pack for the next year.
Cultivation step by step
Sowing (late April, into pots): sow seeds into 8–10 cm pots at 20–25°C. You can also sow directly into the ground in May.
Planting out (second half of May): plant seedlings with 1 × 1 m spacing. Sunny location, fertile soil, preferably after manure.
Care: water regularly at the base (never on the leaves). Fertilize with compost or vegetable fruit fertilizer. Mulching helps.
Harvest (July – September): pick young fruits when 15–20 cm long. The more often you harvest, the more the plant produces. Due to different varieties, colors may be a surprise.
Uses
A classic mix: for grilling in slices (a colorful plate is an attraction), for ratatouille (best version with multicolored zucchinis), for vegetable spreads, stuffing, freezing. You can also pickle them in jars like cucumbers. Young fruits are suitable raw for salads (thinly sliced with a radish slicer).
Gardener’s tip
Note which variety yields best for you – the same garden treats different zucchinis differently. In one vegetable garden, Black Beauty may be the bestseller, in another – Astra Polka. After the season, you’ll know which to order in a full pack for the next year. Tip: mark plants with small name tags when planting out.
