🌱 How to Sow Zucchini seeds Striato d'Italia
To start growing Zucchini Striato d'Italia, sow the seeds directly in the garden after the last frost. Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil and plant the seeds about 2-3 cm deep.

Applying organic compost can help to enrich the soil and boost growth.

This variety is highly heat-tolerant and can endure hot temperatures. However, it also does well in cooler climates, making it a versatile option for various growing zones. The plants need consistent watering to keep the soil moist, but be cautious not to overwater. Zucchini plants can sometimes be prone to pests, especially squash bugs and aphids, so keep an eye on the plants and treat them accordingly.

The Zucchini Striato d'Italia is typically ready for harvest in about 55-60 days, depending on the growing conditions. While you can allow the zucchini to grow up to 30 cm, it’s best to harvest when they’re around 20 cm for optimal flavor and texture. The zucchini should be picked regularly to encourage more fruit production and prevent over-ripening.
