Zucchini Gold Rush F1 Hybrid Seeds
10 Seeds
Gold Rush F1 is an attractive and highly productive zucchini variety, producing abundant crops of striking golden-yellow fruits. Easy to grow and quick to mature, it delivers a continuous harvest when fruits are picked regularly at around 15 cm long. The fruits are tender, full of flavour, and make a colourful addition to salads, stir-fries, and cooked dishes. Also an excellent source of vitamin C.
How to Grow
Sow seeds 12 mm deep directly into the final position, planting 3–4 seeds in clumps and thinning to the two strongest seedlings. Space plants and rows 100 cm apart. For an earlier start, sow seeds in punnets or trays and transplant when strong enough. Keep plants well-watered at the base, and prepare the soil with compost and a complete fertiliser before planting. Seedlings emerge in 6–10 days. Harvest fruits at 12–15 cm long to maintain tender quality and encourage continuous cropping.
