Care and cultivation advice

Propagated indoors in seed soil, one seed per seed pot. For best germination, cover the seed with a transparent cover with air holes, but it is also possible without. Before germination, the seed should be kept at around 22-25 degrees and after germination in a cool and bright place. When the roots start to appear on the underside of the pots, it is time to transplant them to larger pots or planters.

When the plants reach a height of 25 cm, they need to be topped and then let 2-4 side shoots grow up. The plants are planted out after hardening off and when the risk of frost is over. The variety thrives in a sunny spot such as a greenhouse or a protected warm patio. Squashes thrive best in rich, well-drained soil that may contain a little compost.

This variety can also be sown directly in the field, but for earlier harvesting we recommend pre-planting!
