numbers all summer long. Picked young and tender, they are mild, versatile, and endlessly useful, making this one of the most rewarding vegetables a beginner can grow. Who it's for Perfect for beginners, families, and anyone who loves a big harvest. Zucchini is famously productive and easy, so it builds confidence fast and keeps the kitchen well supplied. Just one or two plants can feed a household through the summer. How & when to plant Sow zucchini seeds directly after your last frost, once the soil is warm, planting them about an inch deep in full sun. They sprout quickly, in about 7 to 10 days. Give them room to sprawl, spacing plants about 24 to 36 inches apart, or sow in small hills of two or three seeds and thin to the strongest. Our Zucchini growing guide has more. Growing & care Zucchini are hungry, thirsty plants. Give them rich soil, plenty of sun, and consistent water at the base to keep the leaves dry and prevent mildew. Feed them through the season, and once they start producing, check the plants every day or two, since the squash grow fast. Harvest Pick zucchini young and tender, usually around 6 to 8 inches long and about 50 to 60 days from sowing. Harvest often, even daily at the peak, since frequent picking keeps the plants producing and stops the squash turning into giant, seedy marrows. Benefits & uses Dark green zucchini is one of the most versatile vegetables in the kitchen. Grill or saute it, spiralize it into noodles, bake it into breads and muffins, stuff it, or grate it into fritters. Its mild flavor and generous yields make it a summer staple.
