  • Maintain soil temperature between 70-85°F (21-29°C) for best germination results.

  • Direct sow outdoors after the last frost, once the soil has warmed to at least 65°F (18°C).
  • Sow seeds 1 inch deep in well-prepared soil.
  • Thin seedlings to 18-24 inches apart once they have developed several true leaves.

Germination:

• Seeds typically germinate in 7-10 days under optimal conditions.
• Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid over-watering.

Transplanting:

• If starting indoors, transplant seedlings into the garden once they are large enough to handle (approximately 4-6 inches tall) and the risk of frost has passed.
• Hardening off: Gradually introduce seedlings to outdoor conditions over a 7-10 day period to reduce transplant shock.

Care & Maintenance:

• Support: Squash Pattison's Panache is a bush variety and does not require staking or trellising.
• Pruning: Remove any damaged or dead leaves and shoots to keep the plant healthy and allow better airflow.
• Mulching: Apply mulch around the base to help retain moisture, regulate soil temperature, and suppress weed growth.
