Step 4: Harvest Young and Often
The key to getting multiple harvests quickly is to pick zucchinis when they’re small and tender — about 4-6 inches long. This encourages the plant to keep producing more fruit rapidly. Waiting too long slows down production and can lead to tougher squash.
Step 5: Keep Up With Watering
Zucchini loves consistent moisture but hates soggy roots. Water deeply whenever the top inch of soil feels dry, especially in pots where soil dries out faster.
The Result? Triple the Harvest
By feeding, pruning, and harvesting frequently, my grandma’s method has helped me get three full harvests of zucchini in less than six weeks — an incredible yield, even from a single pot!
Bonus: Try Companion Planting
Planting zucchini near beans or nasturtiums can improve growth and deter pests naturally — another tip I learned from grandma’s garden wisdom.
Final Thought
You don’t need acres of land or a perfect garden to enjoy an abundant zucchini harvest. With this simple, effective trick, passed down from my grandma, even a pot on your balcony can yield a bounty of fresh zucchini — delicious, nutritious, and grown with love.
