That's right, I'm looking for information from anyone growing zucchini indoor, under LEDs. :)


Greatly appreciated. :D

They're a delicious veggie. As a friend pointed out today, they're also massive PM magnets and require a LOT of light. lol


Probably end up growing them yearly and freezing some for winter. :)

that is how greenhouses got started; with rich Brits building what they called "orangeries" to grow fruit indoors in Englands' eminently unsuitable environment...

In my experience zucchini doesn't like containers. Sure they will grow but yield sucks and fruit quality is not great. I'm talking 5 gallon bucket. I'm sure a bigger one would work better but is it worth it?

There are some fairly PM resistant zucchini vartieties these days. Once a week spray with baking soda makes a world of difference.

Peppers love containers,but zucchini not so much.

I like Gold Rush....it's really good.

[FONT=&quot]Check out their LED's too, they actually look pretty cool. I'm sure if you dial the nutes in right it'd be easy enough. I used to grow Habanero's under a small LED on my computer desk using canna nutes, Blu-mats, and coco as the medium. Was actually pretty fun, had chillis all year and they were bloody good too.[/FONT]

I planted 2 40' rows of zucchini this season and between rabbits and deer did not eat a single one.

Squirrels ate about half the corn.

The rabbits were tasty though.
