Tonda Nizza Squash - (Cucurbita pepo) |
|
"Round of Nice" Early maturing, round, light-green thin-skinned fruits for grilling, stuffing, frying or using in parmigiana instead of eggplant. Pick these "courgettes" at golf-ball size and up before skin begins to darken. The more you pick, the more you get. Deliciously different bush variety with a flavor all its own.
Growing tips: Squash seeds dislike cold soil. It's better to wait until the soil is warm to plant the seeds. Also, squash and melons don't like to have their roots disturbed, so when thinning out seedlings in hills, cut the stems of those you want to remove, rather than pulling them out.

Not my favorite |
| This grew and produced very well for me all summer long. Very fast and abundant. What is golfball in size today is a softball in size the next. I like them better at the golfball stage. The larger ones tended to be spongy on the inside and when cooked give up a lot of liquid, so it didnt work so well when breaded. I am still working on my garden soil so I will try them again and see if they come out any different next year. |
