Zucchini DISC

The 'Disc' variety of Pattypan (Patisson) is an early-maturing vegetable with a vegetative period ranging from 40 to 65 days, allowing for a quick harvest. The plants feature a compact bush shape with the formation of 1-2 side shoots, which facilitates care and crop management. The fruits are disc-shaped, weighing between 300 and 400 grams, and are distinguished by their thin skin and tender flesh. The fruit color varies from white to yellow with slightly indistinct serration along the edge. This variety is valued for its dietary properties, richness in vitamins and minerals, and low caloric content, making it an excellent choice for healthy eating.

The 'Disc' Pattypan is characterized by high yield; with proper care, up to 6 kilograms of fruits can be harvested from one square meter. The variety features synchronized maturation, which simplifies harvest collection. It is resistant to most diseases and cold-hardy, allowing it to be grown even in less favorable climatic conditions. The plants prefer fertile, well-warmed soils with a pH of 6-6.5 and require warmth and light for optimal growth. Seeds germinate at temperatures of 12-14°C, while the optimal temperature for plant development is 20-25°C. Pattypan can be grown in open ground, under film cover, via seedlings, or by direct sowing.

This variety of pattypan is versatile in application: fruits are harvested while immature, making them ideal for canning, preparing marinades, salads, and vegetable caviar. Thanks to their good marketable appearance and prolonged freshness retention, 'Disc' is suitable for both home use and processing and sale in fresh form. The compact bush shape and high yield make this variety attractive to both enthusiasts and professional vegetable growers.
