Growing Information

Sowing info

Squash are very fast growing so do not be tempted to start too early. Sow seeds 1.5cm deep in small pots filled with peat free compost. Sow the seeds on their side, if laid flat, water can sit on top of the seed and cause it to rot. Keep at a temperature of 20-25C until after germination, which usually takes 7-10 days.

Growing info

Plant out after all risk of frost has passed into a sunny position. Keep well watered to avoid issues with powdery mildew. Plants will trail significantly so allow sufficient room for them to sprawl.
