2. How to plant:
- After preparing all the ingredients, we start growing zucchini on the terrace with the following steps:
2.1. Sowing seeds
- To promote seed germination, you should soak pumpkin seeds in a ratio of 2 boiling to 3 cold water overnight.
Prepare a sowing tray, then put the seeds in the soil (sow 3-4 seeds), bury the seeds about 1.5cm deep, then cover with a thin layer of soil on top. After sowing seeds, just spray water or water lightly to ensure the soil has enough moisture for the seeds to germinate. After 7-14 days the seeds will germinate and grow into seedlings.
- After the seedlings are about 7-10 days old, prune the bad ones, choose 1-2 healthy ones to plant, and transfer the plants to the terrace.
2.2. How to grow zucchini in pots
- When the plant has 2-3 true leaves, you can start separating it into pots for planting. In one pot, you should only plant 1-2 plants. When removing the seedlings from the nursery pot, be gentle because the roots are very sensitive. The appropriate planting distance between two trees is 20cm or more. Planting should be done in the cool afternoon when the sun is out. After planting the seedlings, water them twice a day and provide shade for the first week to help the seedlings recover.
