Green zucchini seeds from market gardeners

Non-vining green zucchini seeds (Maxima pepo) - 10 seeds

The Green Non-Venturing Courgette from Market Gardeners is a classic, non-vining variety with an upright growth habit. It produces club-shaped fruits, green with creamy white stripes, averaging 18 cm in length.

Sowing: In April, sow in small pots in a bright location (minimum temperature 12°C; the seeds need warmth to germinate), placing the seeds on their sides. Be careful with watering; keep the soil moist with a spray bottle, but avoid overwatering to prevent the seeds from rotting. Place your pots near a light source.

Transplant to a sunny location in mid-May, spacing non-vining varieties 1 m apart in all directions. Water regularly. Adding compost is recommended.
Pinch the stems to stimulate growth.
Hoe and weed. Mulch around the base to limit weed growth and retain moisture. Water at the base in summer, avoiding wetting the foliage.

Harvest 2 months after sowing. The younger a courgette is when harvested, the less bitter it will be, unlike courgettes that are allowed to grow very large.

Open-pollinated seeds harvested exclusively from the Pot'à'Jo garden, a 1500m² market garden combining horticulture and permaculture. Everything is cultivated there with deep respect for nature and its inhabitants. I have been cultivating my own seeds, from seed to seed, for years.
