  • Soil requirements: Summer squash seeds prefer well-drained, fertile soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.
  • Sunlight needs: These seeds require full sun, which means they need at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
  • Watering requirements: Summer squash plants need consistent moisture. Water them deeply once a week, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged. Mulching can help retain soil moisture.
  • Planting season: The best time to plant summer squash seeds is in the spring after the last frost date, when the soil has warmed to at least 60°F (15°C).
  • Depth and spacing: Plant the seeds about 1 inch deep and space them 24 to 36 inches apart in rows that are 3 to 6 feet apart. If planting in hills, space the hills 3 to 4 feet apart.
  • Germination time: Summer squash seeds typically germinate within 7 to 10 days under optimal conditions.
  • Maturity time: Summer squash plants usually reach maturity and are ready for harvest within 50 to 65 days after planting.
  • Harvesting time: The best time to harvest summer squash is in the early morning when the fruits are firm and cool.
  • Harvesting tips: Harvest summer squash when they are young and tender, typically when they are 6 to 8 inches long. Use a sharp knife or pruning shears to cut the squash from the vine, leaving a small portion of the stem attached. Store harvested squash in a cool, dry place and use them within a few days for the best flavor and texture.
