Jiegua, also known as papaya, is a variety of wax gourd. According to the shape of fruit, its varieties can be divided into two categories, namely short cylinder and long cylinder. Common varieties of Cucurbita pepo are Qixingzi, pineapple and Dateng. Chieh-gua has a well-developed root system, lush stems and leaves, strong branching ability, and a considerable number of fruits, which can be eaten by both young and old melons and can be preserved for a long time.

The growth cycle and cultivation season of Chieh-gua are the same as those of wax gourd, and the cultivation method can refer to the cultivation method of wax gourd. It is best to plant in sandy loam, with row spacing of 70-80cm, plant spacing of 33-50cm, and support when vines grow to 35cm. With the growth of zucchini, the seeds are pruned to ensure the supply of fertilizer and water in the flowering and fruiting period, and the compound fertilizer is applied once every half month.

Second, the difference between zucchini and zucchini

Jiegua, also known as hairy melon, is a variety of wax gourd, which is widely cultivated in southern China, and now it is also planted in northern China, but it is less. Chiqua young fruit skin is green, and old fruit skin has white wax powder, so the fruit is big. Zucchini, also known as American pumpkin, is a kind of pumpkin, native to southern North America. Among them, stirred pumpkin and pearl pumpkin are both varieties of zucchini. The fruit of zucchini is much smaller than zucchini.
