Winter squash Guatemalan Blue #3335
Not available for 2023
(90 – 95 days) Cucurbita maxima Large Banana squash with thick golden flesh and very tasty, stores well. Grows up to 20” in length and 5lb in weight.
Not only do these store really well and are tasty, I have to be honest and say they are fun to grow as well.
Direct sow or transplant in late spring once the soil is warm. For transplants, start seeds indoors during the first two weeks of May. Soil temperature: 25-35°C Seeds should germinate in 7-14 days. Sow seeds 1″ deep. Sow 3 seeds in each spot where you want a plant to grow, and thin to the strongest plant. Space summer squash 45-60cm (18-24″) apart in rows 90-120cm (36-48″) apart. Give winter squash and pumpkins even more room with a minimum of 90-120cm (36-48″) apart in rows 120-180cm (48-72″) apart.
