The General zucchini variety is an early-maturing type of zucchini that begins bearing fruit 43-47 days after germination. The plants are semi-trailing with 1-2 shortened first-order shoots, forming medium-density bushes. The fruits are cylindrical, smooth, dark green in color with characteristic white mottling, weighing from 0.7 to 1.3 kg. The flesh is light yellow, crunchy, juicy, and tender, possessing excellent taste qualities.
This variety is excellent for everyday use in cooking, as well as for seasonal winter preparations such as making caviar, pickling, and freezing. The General zucchini is characterized by good resistance to short-term cooling and gray mold of fruits, making it a reliable choice for cultivation in various climatic conditions.
The yield of the variety ranges from 7-8 to 10-12 kg per square meter. For planting, it is recommended to use both direct sowing of seeds in open ground followed by thinning and the seedling method, planting 20-30-day seedlings after the threat of frost. Plants require regular watering, weeding, loosening, and fertilization. To stimulate fruiting, harvest should be collected regularly from July to September.
