Description
Zucchini is too scientifically known as Cucurbita pepo, and is a type of summer squash that belongs to the gourd family. Zucchini is best harvested when the fruit has a vibrant green color and is still young and tender, usually around 6 to 8 inches in length.
Zucchini is low in calories and a good source of vitamins A and C, as well as minerals like potassium. It also provides dietary fiber and antioxidants, contributing to its nutritional benefits.
Plant Care:
Use a sharp knife or pruning shears to harvest zucchini by cutting the stem above the fruit. Harvesting regularly encourages the plant to produce more fruit.
