That's why squash seeds are a good choice for the vegetable garden.
Squash seeds are one of the most rewarding crops to grow – they germinate quickly, grow vigorously and produce impressive yields throughout the season. By choosing squash seeds over purchased plants, you get both more varieties to choose from and the ability to customize your cultivation from the start.
Squash thrives best in sunny areas with rich, well-drained soil. With proper soil preparation and regular watering, you will have strong plants that deliver fresh, crisp fruit from midsummer onwards.
How to grow squash
Squash seeds are sown in small pots indoors and planted out in the garden in April-May. Squash is a hungry plant that likes to be planted in good soil and have extra fertilizer.
Give the plants plenty of space as they grow quite vigorously. Remove old, wilted leaves.
Squash almost always succeeds better outdoors than in the greenhouse.
