Hmm. I recently attended a talk by Renee Shepherd, where she gave away seeds for a new container zucchini (Astia). The packet says it was developed especially for container growing and small space gardens. But the minimum container size for one plant is 15 in. diameter by 12 in. high, which is about 1.5 cf = 10 gallons (for 15 in x 15 in x 12 in) or 1.23 cf = 8 g (for 15 in. diameter).

And I assume a regular type of zucchini requires more space.

You could try one plant in a 10g, but if you have something larger, your plant will probably be much happier.
