Zucchini is best planted in the open field in April-May. Dig the soil deeply first, apply base fertilizer, then dig ditches to make beds, and then soak the seeds of zucchini to accelerate germination, so that it can be planted in the soil. After planting, do a good job of heat preservation and moisture preservation, and soon the zucchini will emerge and grow.

Open-field zucchini 1 How to plant and when to plant it?

Planting zucchini in the open field needs to be done at the right time. It likes to grow in a warm environment, and is generally the most suitable for planting in April-May. Otherwise, if the planting time is too early and the temperature is low, it will be difficult for zucchini to germinate and grow, and then the growth condition will be poor.

2. Soil preparation and fertilization

Before planting open-field zucchini, soil preparation and fertilization are needed. Choose a plot with abundant sunshine, deep soil layer and loose and fertile soil, turn it over deeply, and apply a proper amount of fertilizer as base fertilizer in the soil. Then dig a ditch for the border, the border width is 100 cm, the border height is 20 cm, and the border width is 25-30 cm.

3, soaking seeds to accelerate germination

Soak the seeds of zucchini in warm water at 30℃ for 4-6 hours, then put them in wet cloth, and then put them in a warm environment at 28-30℃ to accelerate germination. When the seeds turn white, they can be prepared for planting or directly sown, but the germination rate will be lower.

4. Planting method

Sow zucchini seeds into the soil at certain intervals and cover them with a thin layer of soil. In the meantime, keep the soil slightly moist. After planting, cover it with a layer of plastic film, and it will soon emerge and grow. At this time, it is necessary to raise seedlings at intervals in time, loosen the soil and sprout seedlings, and apply thin fertilizer regularly.
