Never bitter and produces fruit quickly: the best early zucchini variety

It is quite difficult to grow zucchini in small areas, because this plant is very climbing, so it needs a lot of space. However, breeders have long ago bred bush varieties of zucchini that are better suited for beds near private homes. This was reported by SSPDaily.

How bush varieties differ from ordinary ones

Usually, zucchini is grown in the open field, because from a single seed, a rather large bush with massive leaves and lashes ripens the fruits. But in small areas, bush varieties are most often sown. They do not weave, but grow in small bushes. Therefore, 2 such plants can be planted on 1 square meter.

When choosing the best variety for planting in your garden, you should pay attention to the following parameters:

• the variety (hybrid) should correspond to your climate zone - zucchini is a heat-loving crop, and therefore they do not grow well in cool regions;
• what they are grown for - there are universal specimens, and there are those that are suitable only as animal feed or for fresh consumption;
• Yield - if zucchini is grown for feeding animals, the taste is not important, but high yield is.

Usually, gardeners try to grow 2-3 varieties at once to get vegetables with different flavors and colors.

Ultra-early varieties of zucchini

With these varieties, you will harvest the crop 37-45 days after the first sprouts appear. Early varieties are also suitable for northern regions with a short summer season. And in the southern regions, they are planted after the first green crops are cut.
