Good Companion Plants for Zucchini and Summer Squash Corn: Corn shares space well with zucchini and summer squash, since it grows vertically while the squash grow along the ground. The squash plants also help shade the soil to reduce the weeds that compete with the corn plants. Both corn and summer squash have the same moisture and soil fertility requirements, so they are very good neighbors. Beans: Pole beans, especially, work well planted near zucchini and other summer squashes.
If space is limited, choose bush varieties only, or grow squash vertically on a trellis or wire. Prepare the bed with compost, peat, or well-rotted manure, then add commercial fertilizer. Plant squash in hills or clusters when the soil warms, spacing six seeds about 2 inches apart. A common misconception is that the soil must be mounded, but this is a matter of choice. The advantage of raised hills is that, like raised beds, they drain well and dry out quickly. Space the hills about 6 feet apart.
