What you need to know:
- 1 x Mr Fothergills Squash Vegetable Spaghetti Seeds
- Harvest: September to November
- Indoors Sowing Guide: For greenhouse crops, for surest results, 1.5cm (½”) deep, on edge, in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Keep moist. Seedlings usually appear in 7-14 days. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out 90cm (3’) apart, when frosts are over.
- Outdoors Sowing Guide: For outdoor crops, for ease, where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½”) deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 90cm (3’) between sowing positions. Sow two seeds on edge per position. Early sowings benefit from cloche protection. Thin to leave the stronger plant. Water well until plants are established.
- Soil Type: Fertile, well drained soil
- Hints & Tips: Harvest before first frosts, squashes are generally ripe when fruits become a darker colour and the flesh separates, rather like spaghetti on cooking.
