Product Reviews

Zucchini Sweet Zuke Hybrid - 1 Pkt. (25 seeds)

"48 days. All zucchini were not created equal! Sweet Zuke's nutty flavor is tasty both cooked and fresh. Heavy yields of cylindrical fruits on bush-type plants. Burpee exclusive. Summer squash and zucchini ripen early and are highly productive. The bush type plants take little space. After danger of frost, sow 3-4 seeds in groups 3-4' apart or sow 6"" apart in rows, later thinning to 3' apart. 25 seeds per packet unless noted, sows 6-8 groups. One ounce sows 40-50 groups. Sun."

Best Zucchini I have had, June 9, 2009
Submitted by Chris
"This is the best Zucchini I have grown. They grow large arround immediately but the seeds are very small and are great this size. They actually taste a little sweet to me like the name says. The seeds are hard to germinate, only one of 5 germinated for me but well worth the effort."

I thought I liked Zucchini ..., January 2, 2009
Submitted by GrandPop from Labadie, MO
"I always liked zucchini ... then I planted the sweet Zuke Hybrid last year, and I now realize that I had never really had zucchini before!! This is the best tasting zuke I have ever experienced / I grow for taste first and foremost and this exceeded all my expectations. It really is nutty tasting, produced well with only a little mildew late in the season (probably from the excessive rain & watering). Best of all my 1 year old grandson loved it and ate all that we put in front of him. I highly recommend this zucchini. I am buying extra this year for my friends at work."

Great producer, August 1, 2008
Submitted by TheMiss from Albuquerque
"I had a hard time starting them (indoors)-only 2 seeds sprouted. One died when I set it out. The one plant has given us more squash than the 2 zuchinni plants that I bought locally.
great taste-always more squash-matures quickly. firm nice skin, solid. We love it."

Excellent Producer, August 13, 2007
Submitted by Anonymous from Longmont, CO
"The plants do get huge, they're taller than the first climbing platform on my child's climber, which is a good five feet up. They also really responded well to organic fertilizer and are producing madly. The fruit is firm and solid, the seeds are small, and the skins are quite thin, especially when picked smaller than a foot in length. Tasty enough that friends we've given them to have actually asked for more, which was very useful as these really produce a lot.

As with the first reviewer, I'm getting a powdery mildew on mine, but the production and the plants don't seem to be bothered much by it."

Sweet Zukes!, January 3, 2007
Submitted by Jake from New Gloucester, ME
Plant performance: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Taste: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
Yield: 5 out of 5 5 out of 5
"This Zucchini is exellent. The plants can get massive though, so be sure to give them some elbow room. The yeild it produced was exellent, and I was up to my ears in zucchini by the end of the summer. It is very easy to grow, and would recommend this plant to any gardener, any age. It did seem to develop some cases of powdery mildew, but was pretty tolerent to the disease. I will always buy this variety, and you should too."

"Make sure you give these a lot of room in your garden; the plants get huge and so do the zukes! I cut one the other day that was 14" long and about 5" across. Not a lot of taste, but fairly sweet, nutty and crunchy."
