The seeded zucchini is one of the most popular Cucurbita cultivars at home and abroad. It is named because of its shape like a basket.

The growing techniques of the seeded zucchini are very important, including:

1. Suitable growing environment

Seeded zucchini is suitable for growing in warm, humid and breathable environment. It is often best to plant in spring and summer. The suitable growth temperature is 25-30 ° C, and the suitable relative humidity is between 60% and 80% .

2. Choose a good breeding site

In spring, it is best to raise zucchini in a sunny, well-ventilated, fertile and well-drained border field. At the same time also need to pay attention to border high, border width, gully, ensure drainage mitigation.

3. Reasonable control of sowing amount

The seed germination ability of seeded zucchini is good, the sowing amount is controlled in every 500 square meters to use about 2-2.5 kilograms, the spacing reaches 100 cm or so is good.

4. Pay attention to fertilizer and drainage

In the cultivation of seeded zucchini, it is necessary to pay attention to fertilization and drainage. Improper management of fertilizer and water can lead to slow growth, reduced yield and disease susceptibility of summer squash. The proper amount of fertilizer should be applied in time to ensure the growth of zucchini, and the water should be drained in time to avoid water accumulation leading to root disease, and then the bad effects of irradiation.

5. Regular pest control

In the cultivation of seeded zucchini, there is also a need for attention on the pest control side. For example, zucchini fruit rot, leaf rot and so on, all need to be prevented and treated in time by means of reasonable fertilizer and medicine, so as to ensure the normal growth and production of zucchini.

The distance between the plants of zucchini

Due to the strong demand for zucchini, modern agricultural equipment and technology is also constantly upgrading, the distance between plants growing zucchini tends to increase. How far apart is the zucchini plant suitable?

1. Plant spacing is 0.6 m × 0.6 m

In general, 0.6 m × 0.6 m is the optimum distance between the plants, which can ensure the uniform distribution of individual plants and facilitate management. For every 667 square meters or so, 50-70 zucchini plants can be placed in the region to achieve large areas of planting and effective coverage.

2. The width of a single plant is 90 cm and the width between rows is about 1 m

However, due to the continuous upgrading of agricultural equipment, there are new changes in the spacing of zucchini cultivation. For example, the width of a single plant is about 90cm, and the row spacing is guaranteed to be about 1m, which can make full use of the area and reduce the waste rate.

3. Plant spacing is selected according to the equipment

Similar to the second point, the spacing of zucchini plants depends on the Operability of the agricultural machinery used. If the field has sufficient equipment support, then can also plant classification adjustment between two rows, so that can avoid the impact of plant competition yield, full play of land efficiency.

To sum up, the distance between the plants of zucchini depends on many factors, such as the geographical area of the growing area, the status of agricultural machinery, personal economic status, etc. , get the best yield.
