Table Queen Acorn Winter Squash produces dependable bush-type plants that yield firm, dark-green acorn squash with rich golden-yellow flesh. Fruits typically reach about 1 pound and develop full flavor as they ripen near season’s end. This heirloom variety offers excellent versatility in the kitchen and stores well through winter when properly cured.

We ship to the Continental U.S. and Alaska only. We cannot ship to Hawaii, overseas U.S. military bases, or U.S. territories.

Growing Information

Planting

  • Plant Table Queen Acorn Winter Squash in full sun once soil temperatures have warmed in spring.
  • Sow seeds directly outdoors, spacing plants to allow a mature height and spread of about 18–24 inches.
  • Use fertile, well-drained soil to support steady growth and strong fruit development.
  • In regions with long growing seasons, acorn squash can also be planted later in the year, as they tolerate a light frost near maturity.
  • Keep soil consistently warm and avoid overwatering in cool conditions to promote smooth germination.
  • Thin seedlings as needed to ensure each plant has room to develop its full bush form.

Maintenance

  • Provide consistent moisture during early growth, adjusting watering as fruits begin to develop.
  • Mulch around plants to conserve soil moisture and help reduce weed pressure.
  • Because plants are bush-type, they require less space but still benefit from good air circulation.
  • Monitor for common cucurbit pests and remove any damaged foliage to encourage healthy growth.
  • Leave fruits on the vine until fully mature to achieve the best flavor and storage potential.

Harvest & Storage

  • Harvest in 80–85 days when the rinds have hardened and fruits have reached their mature 6-inch, approximately 1-pound size.
  • Leave a small portion of the stem attached when cutting squash from the vine to help extend storage life.
  • Allow squash to ripen fully on the vine just before frost arrives for the best flavor.
  • Cure harvested fruits in a cool, dry space to prepare them for long-term winter storage.
  • Store cured squash at 45–55°F in a well-ventilated area to maintain quality for months.
