green machine zucchini

A bumper extra-early ongoing crop of medium-dark green shiny zukes is a fun ride all summer. In 2019 we trialed more than 20 modern zuke varieties and compared them to market standard Raven. The results were stunning: despite the listed days to maturity, Green Machine was pumping out easy-to-pick perfect dark zucchinis 7–10 days before Raven. And Raven was outpaced, too: Green Machine made mild nutty dense fruit at a 4:1 ratio all season. While not spineless, the open habit and wide branch spacing allows quick picking of unscratched fruit.
