Growing Information

Planting

  • Sow seeds directly outdoors after frost when soil temperatures have warmed.
  • Plant seeds 1 inch deep in fertile, well-drained soil.
  • Space plants to allow a mature height of about 18–24 inches and a spread of 24–36 inches.
  • Choose a full-sun location to ensure strong growth and robust fruiting.
  • Thin seedlings once established to provide plants ample room to develop.
  • For earlier yields, start seeds indoors and transplant carefully after danger of frost has passed.

Maintenance

  • Provide consistent soil moisture to support steady growth and high fruit quality.
  • Mulch around plants to suppress weeds and help retain moisture.
  • Monitor for common squash pests and remove affected foliage if necessary.
  • Allow adequate spacing to promote airflow and reduce fungal issues.
  • Support vigorous growth with balanced fertilization during the season.

Harvest & Storage

  • Harvest fruits when they reach 5–6 inches in length for the best flavor and texture.
  • Pick regularly to encourage continuous production throughout the season.
  • Fruits typically reach maturity in about 50–60 days from sowing.
  • Use promptly after harvest or refrigerate for several days to maintain quality.
  • For longer storage, blanch and freeze the squash for later use.
