Japanese breeders of the Sakata company have developed a high-yielding hybrid variety of yellow-fruited zucchini. Zucchini F1 Yasmin - a plant for cultivation in a greenhouse and open field, medium early ripening. In Russia, the variety is distributed by Gavrish, the largest supplier of seeds to the domestic market.

Agricultural technology of cultivation
Yasmin zucchini seeds in an unusual blue package - pickled, do not need additional protection... The culture is planted in the ground with seeds and seedlings, when the temperature of the soil layer at a depth in the palm reaches +12 degrees. Seedlings at the age of 20-30 days or seeds that have hatched are planted in prepared holes 40-50 cm in diameter, 10 cm deep.
The acidic reaction of the soil under Yasmin F1 squash is preferable to be neutral or slightly alkaline. Before planting seedlings, a bucket of humus or compost is introduced into the hole, dug up and spilled abundantly with water. After planting, the hole is mulched with 2-3 cm of compost. If necessary, deoxidize the soil, add crushed chalk, lime, dolomite.
In the case of covering the ridge with an opaque film, cuts are made crosswise under the seedlings and sprouts of zucchini. Seedlings that have emerged in 1-2 ten days of April need a volumetric shelter under the arches. On cool nights, the plant will not overcool, and in the daytime the bush is tempered with the covering material removed, the soil does not dry out. Yasmin zucchini do not tolerate shading well.
Landing in the ground | Seedlings, germinated and dry seeds |
|---|---|
Zucchini predecessors | Nightshades, legumes, root vegetables, cabbage |
Irrigation degree | Abundant - the plant is moisture-loving |
Soil requirements | Light fertilized soils. Ph neutral, slightly alkaline |
Lighting requirements | The plant tolerates shading painfully |
Features of fetal maturation | Eat early - overripe fruits are prone to cracking |
Watering and feeding
During the development of the Yasmin bush before the beginning of fruiting, the zucchini is watered moderately: 2-3 liters per plant with loosening after the topsoil has dried. The fruiting plant is watered twice as abundantly. Evening watering is preferable: moisture is completely absorbed into the soil.When watering from a watering can, the roots and leaves of the plant assimilate moisture. On hot days, water consumption for irrigation increases. At the end of the growing season, watering is reduced, a week and a half before harvesting the bushes, zucchini stop watering.
During the autumn digging of the soil, organic fertilizers are applied for the zucchini - in the loose soil, the roots of the Yasmin zucchini develop actively. During the growing season, feeding is carried out 1 time in 3 weeks. Aqueous solutions of mineral fertilizers alternate with infusions of mullein and bird droppings. Plant development and fruit growth is stimulated by watering with a slight addition of a weekly infusion of weeds.
Regular foliar dressing at intervals of 1.5–2 weeks is more effective than root dressing. Depleted solutions of nitrogen fertilizers for spraying the leaves of fruiting zucchini are prepared for single use. Excessive enthusiasm for nitrogen fertilizers threatens the accumulation of nitrates in the fruits.
Stocks for the winter
Before the end of the season, the Yasmin squash bushes are prepared for harvesting for storage without processing. Watering stops. Flowers, ovaries, small fruits are removed. Leave on the bush 2-3 zucchini fruits of the correct shape, without damage. September and August are rich in morning dew, which is fraught with rotting fruits.
Experienced gardeners sprinkle pine and spruce needles under the bushes of zucchini with the appearance of the first ovaries. Fruits practically do not touch the ground on a blown resinous litter. When loosening, dry needles remain on the soil surface. After digging, it does not decompose in the soil for a long time, being a natural conductor of air and moisture to the roots of the bush.
Early maturity, high yield, culinary characteristics of fresh fruits and canned marrows of the Yasmin variety have made the variety popular. The enthusiastic reviews of gardeners contribute to the spread of the yellow-sided Japanese Yasmin F1 in Russian beds.
