Guatemalan Blue Squash Seeds 2282. Heirloom Vegetable.

Approx. 5-10 seeds/pkt (10-12 seeds/gram)

This heirloom banana squash has been grown by South American Indians for over 1500 years! Hard shelled, smooth, slate-gray fruit average 35-40 cm (14-16″) long and have a sweet, nutty flavour.  Guatemalan Blue is a good keeper but can be an aggressive grower so give it room to grow!

How to Grow

Squash are a hot weather crop. They need full sun and deep, rich, well drained, organic soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Before planting, work in lots of compost. Directly plant seed outdoors from late May to mid June 2.5 cm (1″) deep in hills 2.4 m (8′) apart with 4-6 seeds per hill. After germination, thin to 3 plants per hill. Seed can be started indoors 3 weeks before the plant out date. Squash do not transplant well–use paper or fibre pots that can be set directly in the soil. Protect mature squash from frost and cold temperatures.
