To grow this squash, here are some tips:
Sowing indoors:
Sow seeds 1 inch (2 cm) deep in cells or small pots filled with potting soil.
Label and cover with a clear plastic bag or lidded propagator.
Place them on a warm windowsill.
Direct outdoor sowing:
In soil enriched with organic matter, plant two seeds in a hole 2 inches (5 cm.) deep.
Cover with earth and protect under a cover for more warmth.
Soil preparation:
Incorporate plenty of well-rotted manure or compost.
Create a mound of soil about 15 cm (6 inches) high on heavy soils to aid drainage.
Hardening off plants:
Acclimatize them to outdoor conditions for 2 to 3 weeks.
Pollination:
Squash plants produce separate male and female flowers.
Pollination by insects is necessary for fruits to form naturally.
You can also hand pollinate female flowers to improve yields.
