Seeds Organically produced in Cornwall. These seeds produce reputedly one of the most delicious squashes ever. Green skin and firm sweet flesh, ideal for roasting as well as soups and pumpkin pie.
Grow in the miscellaneous section of your rotation.
Sow seeds in large modules in April and May using a good quality Seed & Cutting compost. Transfer the seedling with a large plug of the starter compost into 8cm pots and a richer Multi-Purpose compost.
Harden off and plant into the growing site after all danger of frost has passed. Plant at a distance of at least 60cm. Keep watered if the weather is dry after planting. The vines are vigorous with large leaves. Yellow trumpet flowers appear and the pollination between male and female flowers is done by bees and other insects. Harvest the squashes when ready from September to November and before the first frosts.
