Butternut squash rugosa seeds

Sowing

Annual: direct sow each seed 2.5cm deep, 90-180cm apart, in rich, well-drained soil in full sun after the last frost. Alternatively sow in a pot and keep moist until germination.

Transplant when 3 to 4 weeks old, taking care to avoid damaging the root ball. Water abundantly during flowering. It takes 100 or so days to maturity.
