{"product_id":"eight-ball-zucchini","title":"Eight Ball Zucchini","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eEight Ball zucchini is a unique hybrid variety that produces round, globe-shaped fruits typically 3-4 inches in diameter (sometimes up to 5 inches), with smooth, glossy dark green to nearly black skin that's firm and slightly ribbed, and crisp, white flesh that's tender and seedless when harvested young. The flavor is mild, fresh, and slightly nutty with a buttery quality—excellent when picked small to medium for the best texture and taste, avoiding the toughness and larger seeds that develop in oversized fruits. These zucchini are highly versatile: slice into rounds for grilling or frying, stuff and bake (perfect for individual servings), spiralize into noodles, grate for zucchini bread or fritters, dice for stir-fries and ratatouille, or enjoy raw in salads and as boats for fillings like cheese or meat. This variety is a great fit for Utah because it's early-maturing and productive in our hot, dry summers with well-drained soil, it handles variable weather well with good airflow, and it's a reliable summer squash recommended by local extensions like USU for consistent yields in shorter high-elevation seasons. It's great for containers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt City Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Individual Plant","offer_id":44849179000941,"sku":"8ball-zuc-01","price":3.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2-Pack","offer_id":44888660541549,"sku":"8ball-zuc-02","price":4.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-Pack","offer_id":44849178968173,"sku":"8ball-zuc-04","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/6774\/9997\/files\/EightBallZucchini.jpg?v=1773704754","url":"https:\/\/saltcitygardens.com\/products\/eight-ball-zucchini","provider":"Salt City Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
