Dark Green Zucchini is a popular summer squash variety characterized by its dark green skin and tender flesh. Dark Green Zucchini thrives in warm temperatures, ideally between 20°C and 30°C. It is sensitive to frost, so planting should be timed to avoid cold spells.

Characteristics:

1. Growth Habit: The plant has a bushy growth habit, which makes it suitable for home gardens and small spaces. It produces abundant fruit throughout the growing season.
2. Fruit Quality: The zucchinis are cylindrical, typically 15 to 25 cm long, with glossy dark green skin. They are best harvested when young and tender for optimal flavor and texture.
3. Yield Potential: Dark Green Zucchini is known for its high yield potential, with multiple fruits developing per plant. With proper care, a single plant can produce several kilograms of zucchini in a season.
4. Harvesting: The average time from planting to harvest is around 50 to 70 days. Harvesting should occur regularly to encourage further fruit production and prevent over-ripening.
