A Few Tips on Growing Zucchini

• Start your seeds at least 6 weeks before the last frost.
• Be sure to add beneficial annuals that will attract pollinators to the veggie garden.
• Plant at least 3 plants on a mound in the garden leaving room for leaves to not be disturbed.
• Carefully harvest the veggies – the steam/stalk of the plant is very delicate.
• Watch for mildew and treat as soon as spotted.  Researcher shows that milk sprays can help prevent powdery mildew on tomato, barley, and zucchini.
• Add straw around the base of the plant to help hold in the moisture and keep out weeds.
