Blue Hubbard Winter Squash produces large hard-shelled fruits that are gathered at maturity. Can be stored for a long time. Excellent baked or used as pie filling.
SOWING…Plant seed outdoors in a sunny location after danger of frost is past or start indoors 4 to 6 weeks earlier. Make a group of 3 to 5 seeds placed in a ring about 2 inches across; cover with ½ inch of fine soil, well pressed down. Each ring of seeds is called a hill and hills should be spaced 6 to 8 feet apart each way.
THINNING…When plants are 2 to 3 inches tall, thin leaving 3 or 4 strongest plants in each hill.
GERMINATION…Germinates in 10 to 15 days depending on soil and temperature conditions.
REMARKS…Allow fruits to remain on vine until fully mature. Gather before frost, leaving part of the stem attached to the fruit. Handle carefully and store in a moderately warm, dry place during the winter.Share
