Squash Tricolor Mix Zucchini Seeds offer a vibrant and diverse selection of zucchinis, with three distinct colors to brighten up your garden and your meals. This mixed packet includes creamy pastel green Salman, glossy dark green Raven, and the delicate, nutty buttercup yellow Golden Delight, each with its own unique flavor and texture. The seeds are color-coded with USDA food-grade stain for easy identification: pink for Salman F-1, undyed for Golden Delight F-1, and green for Raven F-1. Zucchinis need full sun, fertile soil, and warm temperatures, so plant them once spring weather has settled and nighttime temperatures stay above 50°F (10°C). Sow 2-3 seeds 1 inch deep, spaced every 2 feet in rows 3 feet apart, or plant in 2-foot mounded hills, thinning to the 2-3 strongest plants. Amend soil with aged manure or compost, and protect seedlings with plastic berry baskets from birds until they grow large enough. For best results, thin your plants properly for more productive, disease-free zucchinis. Harvest when zucchinis are 5-6 inches long for the most tender and flavorful fruits, and continue frequent harvesting to ensure a steady supply. These zucchinis are perfect for steaming, stir-frying, grilling, or serving as a colorful platter with fresh herbs. Try the blossoms sautéed or stuffed for a delicious treat!
