Let vigorous vines grow over a trellis or arbor so the fruit can hang straight. If grown at ground level, fruit may curl into interesting shapes. Wonderful grilled, baked, or used as fall decoration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeed Depth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1″ (25mm)\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Space\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24″ (61cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRow Space:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e5′ (1.5m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSprouts In\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-10 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlant outdoors in full sun in late spring after soil has warmed. Germinates poorly in soil temperatures below 70 degrees F. Provide a trellis or support at planting if desired. Squash prefers fertile soil and even moisture. Feed at planting with a complete, organic fertilizer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavor is best when fruit is harvested young, at 8″ long and 2″ diameter.
