Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Soak the seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to enhance germination.

Sowing:

Sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost date.
Plant seeds 1 inch deep in hills spaced 4-6 feet apart.
Place 3-4 seeds per hill and thin to the strongest 2-3 plants once they emerge.

Germination:

Seeds typically germinate in 7-14 days.
Maintain soil temperature between 70-95°F for optimal germination.

Transplanting:

Not recommended, as squash plants do not transplant well.
If starting indoors, use peat pots and transplant carefully to avoid root disturbance.

Care and Maintenance:

Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Mulch around the plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds.
Harvest when the squash reaches a size of 6-8 inches and the skin is firm.

Gardening is the art that uses vegetable and plants as paint, and the soil and sky as canvas.
Happy gardening!
