- The seeds germinate best when the soil temperatures are around 18 °C.
- Winter Squash cultivation begins with a hill.
- Draw your garden soil into a hill of about 30 cm across and 8cm-10 cm in height. This allows the soil to heat around the seeds and roots.
- Your soil should be well amended and well fertilized since squash plants are heavy feeders.
- Plant 2 – 4 squash seeds per hill about 2 cm deep and a few cm apart.
- Keep the soil moist, but not soggy.
- The seeds germinate best when the soil temperatures are around 18 °C. In about 10 days, the seeds will sprout.
- When they’re about 5cm high, thin out the weakest leaving one plant per hill.
- The squash growing season is about 110-120 days for fruit maturation.
