Second, how to grow zucchini with high yield?

1. Site selection: zucchini do not have high requirements for soil, and generally sandy soil, loam and clay can be planted, but zucchini are also afraid of drought, so when selecting land, choose plots with good drainage as far as possible to promote the timely discharge or absorption of water.

2. Sowing:

(1) seed treatment: before planting zucchini, the seeds should be germinated first, the specific method is to soak the seeds in warm water for a period of time, and then take out and mix seeds with chemicals to prevent the infection of diseases and insect pests.

(2) sowing time: due to regional problems, the sowing time of zucchini is also different, but generally speaking, autumn sows in September, winter greenhouse sows in October, and spring sows in November.

(3) sowing method: in general, it is enough to sow about 400g seeds per mu, and sowing deep enough to 3cm can make the seeds germinate quickly.

3. Planting: zucchini is a trailing plant, so after a certain period of time, it should be planted with a fence or bracket so that it can grow upward along the support. In general, sparse planting can be carried out if the plant is large and grows well.

4. Water management: zucchini does not have a high requirement for water. Generally, it only needs to be watered during soil preparation in the early stage, and then combined with fertilizer in the later stage.

5. Fertilizer management: zucchini do not have high requirements for fertilizer. Generally, 5000-7000kg of mature organic fertilizer is applied per mu before planting. When it comes to the full fruit period, fertilizing and watering every half a month, generally, 400 to 500 kilograms of mature organic fertilizer, 30 kilograms of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and 10 kilograms of urea can be applied to each mu.

6. Field management: during the growth period, zucchini do not have high requirements for light, temperature and other conditions, generally in the seedling stage and flower and fruit stage to remove the grass twice.

What are the points for attention in the cultivation of zucchini?

1. Soil: zucchini is afraid of waterlogging and drought, so try to choose soil with good drainage when selecting land.

2. Temperature: zucchini is sensitive to temperature. Generally, the optimum temperature is 20-25 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is higher than 30 degrees or lower than 10 degrees, it will lead to plant growth stagnation.

3. Moisture: zucchini is extremely intolerant of drought, so it should be watered regularly. In general, it can be watered once a week, but not too much, lest stagnant water will lead to root rot.

4. Picking branches: during the growth period of zucchini, many dense branches, lateral branches or useless branches grow, resulting in the lack of nutrition of the whole plant, resulting in slow growth, so in order to make the plant grow vigorously, it is necessary to remove these branches.
