Variety characteristic

Zucchini Skvorushka belongs to the early maturing varieties. Its technical ripeness occurs on average 50 days from germination. Compact bushes Skvorushki have mainly female flowers, which has a positive effect on the number of ovaries. Zucchini of this variety have the shape of a cylinder with a slight ribbing. They have a smooth and thin skin of dark green color with white blotches. The maximum length of a squash variety Skvorushka can be 25 cm, and the weight ranges from 0.5 to 1.2 kg. The fruit has a juicy and white flesh. Due to its tenderness, the pulp has excellent taste characteristics. Ideal for any kind of food preparation and preservation. In addition, the pulp of the fruit can be eaten raw.

Advice! It is worth eating raw only those zucchini that do not exceed 15 cm in length and weigh about 200 grams. Their pulp is the most tender and juicy.

To do this, a zucchini of the appropriate size is simply cut from the bush.

Plants of this variety are resistant to drought and sudden changes in temperature. But the main value of the Skvorushka variety zucchini lies in the rapid and almost simultaneous growth of fruits. It is a high yielding variety. From one square meter, you can harvest up to 10 kg. In addition, zucchini tolerates transportation well.

Important! Due to their thin skins, zucchini cannot be stored as long as regular zucchini varieties. Therefore, it is recommended to use them soon after removal from the bush.

Growing recommendations

For optimal growth, squash of the Skvorushka variety needs a sunny area with a soil neutral in terms of acidity. If the soil on the site is acidic, then it must be limed. Also, a few months before planting, it will not hurt to fertilize the land. Organic fertilizers give good results.

The ideal place for planting will be the beds after crops such as:

  • potatoes;
  • tomato;
  • bow.

You can grow Skvorushka zucchini in the following ways:

  1. Through seedlings - it should be prepared in April.
  2. By sowing with seeds - this method can be used only after the end of the frost. The disembarkation is carried out at the end of May and beginning of June. Several seeds are planted in the holes at once. If all the seeds have sprouted in one hole, then only the strongest sprout should be left. The rest must be carefully removed.

When planting plants using any of the proposed methods, the recommended distance between the bushes must be observed - at least 60 cm.

The variety is quite undemanding to care. He needs regular watering, without strong waterlogging of the soil. In addition, it responds well to loosening and hilling. If necessary, it is possible to apply both organic and mineral fertilizers.

Important! Any fertilizers must be applied diluted. Applying undiluted fertilizer can burn the plant's root system.

Testimonials

Galina, 38 years old, Istra
I read the description of this zucchini on a bag of seeds and decided to try it. Which I do not regret at all. She planted Skvorushka seeds on the May holidays. A week later they all rose, and a month later there was already the first harvest. On the package it was written that the bush is compact, but I had it strongly grown. Maybe the soil is good, maybe it just happened.The leaves of the Skvorushka bushes are a little prickly. Very productive variety, many ovaries. Only and had time to shoot zucchini. At the same time, I did not provide him with special care: regular watering and weeding. But I did weeding only when the bushes were still small. Young zucchini were cooked directly with seeds; they had to be removed from overgrown fruits. We used them right away, did not preserve them. The variety is very good, I will also recommend it to my friends.

The seeds of this variety were given to me for testing by a neighbor when she planted them herself. I had a little space, so I planted 4 things, which all went up. The variety is very productive. And at first there seems to be no zucchini, but you look a week later - they are already there. Their flesh is very tender and juicy. Next year I will plant from my own seeds.
