Green Zucchini — also known as Courgette (Green), Summer Squash (Green) or हरी तोरी / ज़ुकीनी — is an exotic fruit vegetable (summer squash) from the Cucurbitaceae family, native to Central America/Mexico. This Cucurbita pepo variety grows 45–60 cm (bushy, non-vining) tall with a bushy habit and is ready to harvest in 50–60 days. Harvest profile: dark green; long, cylindrical; 15–20 cm (best harvested young); can grow to 30+ cm. Key highlights: prolific green zucchini seeds, easy to grow, high yielding summer squash.

This pack of open pollinated seeds delivers 80–90% germination, with seedlings appearing in 6–10 days. Beginner-friendly, Green Zucchini grows well on Indian terraces, balconies, raised beds and kitchen gardens. It needs full sun (6–8 hrs), loamy, rich, well-drained, fertile soil (pH 6.0–7.0) and moderate-high watering. For container growing, use Geo Fabric Circular Grow Bags or HDPE Rectangular Grow Bags — recommended size: 18x18 inch or grow bag with min. 15L capacity.

Sow Green Zucchini in India during February–March and June–July (Zaid & Kharif season), when temperatures sit around 18–27°C. Plants keep producing for 8–10 weeks (continuous production), with an expected yield of 3–5 kg per plant per season. It is perfect for stir-fries, grilling, baking, fritters, soups and pasta dishes. Grow it alongside corn, beans and radish, plus flowers such as marigold, nasturtium and borage — nasturtium and marigold attract pollinators and deter squash pests. Looking for a similar crop? See our Zucchini Yellow Seeds (ज़ुकीनी पीली).

Good source of Vitamin C, Vitamin A, potassium, low calorie. Exotic vegetables like green zucchini are expensive and hard to find fresh in local markets, but they are surprisingly easy to grow at home from seed. Grows well across most Indian regions in warm season; needs space to spread. Well-suited states include Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka and Punjab.

How to Grow Green Zucchini

Green Zucchini Growing Season in India

Sow during February–March and June–July (Zaid & Kharif) at 18–27°C. Heat tolerance is moderate-high and cold tolerance low, so sowing in this window matters most.

Growing Green Zucchini in Pots and Grow Bags

Grows well in Circular Grow Bags or Rectangular Grow Bags on terraces and balconies.

Container: 18x18 inch or grow bag with min. 15L capacity
Spacing: 60–90 cm between plants; rows 90–120 cm
Method: Direct Sow or Transplant
Support: No (bushy habit; occasionally trained vertically to save space)

Sowing and Germination

Sow 2 cm deep directly or in tray; keep warm (above 18°C); large seeds germinate readily. Germination: 6–10 days. Transplant at 2–3 weeks (if transplanted). Local sowing calendars: ICAR.

Ongoing Care

Space plants 60–90 cm apart to allow for spread; provide consistent water especially during flowering/fruiting; hand-pollinate if fruit set is poor; harvest young (15–20 cm) for best flavour and continued production. Give full sun (6–8 hrs) and moderate-high water. Feed every 2–3 weeks with compost or bio-fertilisers once flowering starts.

Harvesting Green Zucchini

Ready in 50–60 days; keeps producing for 8–10 weeks (continuous production). Edible part: fruit (flowers also edible).

Companion Planting

Corn, Beans and Radish; flowers: Marigold, Nasturtium and Borage. Nasturtium and marigold attract pollinators and deter squash pests.

Common Problems

Watch for powdery mildew, squash vine borer, aphids, poor fruit set (pollination issue). Spray neem oil with a 2 L Spray Pump at dawn or dusk to control sap-sucking pests.

What are good companion plants for Green Zucchini?

Good companions are Corn, Beans and Radish, and flowers such as Marigold, Nasturtium and Borage. Nasturtium and marigold attract pollinators and deter squash pests.

Can I save seeds from my Green Zucchini plants?

Yes. Green Zucchini is open pollinated, so seeds saved from healthy, fully mature plants will grow true to type if kept away from other varieties that could cross-pollinate.

Should I sow Green Zucchini seeds directly or transplant seedlings?

Recommended method: Direct Sow or Transplant. Start seeds in a nursery tray and transplant at 2–3 weeks old seedlings (if transplanted).

Why are my Green Zucchini seeds not germinating?

The most common causes are sowing outside February–March and June–July, soil that is too cold or dry, and sowing too deep. Sow 2 cm deep directly or in tray; keep warm (above 18°C); large seeds germinate readily.

Why are my Green Zucchini seedlings tall and leggy?

Leggy seedlings are stretching for light. Move trays to full sun as soon as seedlings emerge and avoid overcrowding.

How do I control pests on Green Zucchini?

Green Zucchini can be affected by powdery mildew, squash vine borer, aphids, poor fruit set (pollination issue). Inspect leaves regularly, especially the undersides, remove affected parts and apply a neem-based spray in the early morning or evening.

Why are my Green Zucchini leaves turning yellow?

Yellow leaves usually point to overwatering, poor drainage or a nutrient shortage. Keep soil evenly moist but never waterlogged, and feed with compost or organic fertiliser every few weeks.

Can Green Zucchini grow in partial shade?

Green Zucchini performs best in full sun (6–8 hrs). With shade tolerance rated low, plants in shade grow slower and yield less.

Water requirement is moderate-high, consistent. Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry — usually every 1–2 days in summer and less often in cool or cloudy weather.

Can Green Zucchini tolerate Indian summer heat?

Heat tolerance is moderate-high. In very hot months, give afternoon shade, mulch the soil and water early in the morning to reduce stress.

What diseases affect Green Zucchini and how can I prevent them?

Disease resistance is moderate; susceptible to powdery mildew in humid weather. Space plants for good airflow, water at the base instead of over the leaves, and remove infected leaves promptly.

Why is my Green Zucchini not producing well?

Low yields usually come from insufficient sun, irregular watering or excess nitrogen fertiliser. Give full sun, water consistently and switch to a balanced organic feed once flowering begins.
