Squash
Squash are best eaten at the immature stage such as a courgette, they should ideally be picked a few days after flower bloom, when the fruits are young and tender. Most popular as mini veg. Sow indoors early spring onwards into blocks/pots or modules harden off before transplanting into final position. Sowing in situ sow 2 seeds per station after last frosts, thinning to the strongest one.

The cultural
information should be used as a guide only, I have found a number of different
sowing techniques for the same seed from different sources there does not seem
to be a standard. With this in mind you should use this website as a guide
only, you probably already have a tried and tested way of sowing different
seeds. As a rule of thumb the larger the seed size the more cover it requires,
and fine seed like Lobelia Begonia etc requires no cover.
