The RICA Zucchini F1 is an early-maturing and high-yielding hybrid of American selection, developed by United Genetics. The maturation period is 45-50 days, allowing for a quick harvest. The plant is characterized by good growth vigor, uniform development, and resistance to various external influences, including weather stresses, diseases, and pests. Thanks to these qualities, the hybrid is successfully grown both in greenhouses and on open beds or under temporary shelters.
The fruits of the RICA zucchini have a cylindrical shape, are uniform in size and color, with a length of about 16-18 cm and a weight from 150 to 600 grams. The skin is thin, smooth, and dense, light green in color, while the flesh is uniform, has a pleasant taste, and is nutritious. The seed cavity of the fruits is very small, which increases their consumer value. Zucchinis retain their taste qualities after storage and thermal processing, making them versatile for use fresh, for canning, and for processing, such as in caviar.
The RICA zucchini harvest can be transported and stored for 10-14 days without loss of quality, which is convenient for sales in fresh markets and in the kitchen. Thanks to its characteristics, this hybrid is suitable for both home growing and industrial production, providing a stable and quality yield.
