Squash Early Prolific Straightneck Seeds 45 Seeds
As with most squash when you harrvest them small you will get a much more tender and delicate vegetable.
These are living up to their name. Beautiful Specimens!
The seeds have sprouted at a very high rate of success. They look good.
I'll try to come back later when they are growing and report on the results. I am going to plant way too much, so I can hopefully share with neighbors and friends.
Edited to say that they are growing beautifully! Weather hasn't permitted me to transplant them outdoors yet, but they are excellent specimens.
Edited again to say that they are doing well. They have nice blossoms and still look healthy. Some have much larger leaves than others, probably because some were planted in raised planting beds with good soil and others were planted in heavy clay soil, which worked in some cases and not in others, probably because of the differences in sun and/or amount of water the soil retains. All-in-all, they look good regardless of where I planted them. I even planted some in the front yard, among the flowers, bushes, and small trees.
My dentist, who lives close by, told me that last year he had a bumper crop of squash that looked great until one day the squash bugs attacked and destroyed them. I'm hoping that won't happen to mine. They look like they will do well. I would be very disappointed if they don't. I would try again, of course, but I'm hoping to be able to share squash with family and friends this year.
EDITED again (finally) to say that I have LOTS of squash. I am watching diligently for squash bugs, etc., and I like to hand-pollinate them just in case the bees are not available. It's almost to the point where I can furnish all my family and friends with squash - whether they want it or not. :)
