Zucchini Gold Rush is an easy to grow variety that yields abundantly.

Sow 12mm deep direct in final position. Sow 3-4 seeds in clumps, later thinning to the two strongest seedlings. Allow 100cm between plants and rows. Keep the plants well watered and prepare the soil well by adding organic material and a complete fertiliser. For early crops, sow seeds in punnets or trays and plant out when strong enough. Zucchinis like a sunny, sheltered position. Seedlings emerge 6-10days. Tip: Your first crop will be ready 8 weeks from sowing. Cut when about 15cm long and harvest regularly to encourage a continuous crop.

Sow in spring and summer.
