SQUASH, WINTER                                Approximately 300 seeds per oz
PLANTING; Plant seeds in late spring or early summer. Place seed 1/2-1" deep, 2-3 seeds per hill, spaced
2-3' apart. After emerge, thin to one healthy plant. Seed can also be planted in peat pots or  Pro-trays and
transplanted. HARVEST; Before heavy frost, cut stems at about 1" from fruit when stem is drying and skin of fruit is hard. If you can
punch your thumb nail into skin, squash is not mature yet. Use fresh or store in a cool dry place for later use. If fruit becomes
frosted, they store poorly. You will need 1 oz of seeds per 100' row or 3 lbs per acre.    PKT size; about 30 seeds or 1/8 oz.
