Firm fine grained thick flesh of excellent eating quality. Culture: Requires very rich soil as squash is a voracious feeder. Sow 6-8 seeds in groups (hills) 3’-4’ (90-120 cm) apart. In the south sow fall and spring. Thin to 2-3 plants per group. Water regularly from time of flowering until fruits ripen. Harvest: Between 42-56 days, fruits are best at between 4”-7” (10-17.5 cm) long. Very popular in the north because of early ripening. Nutrition: High in vitamin C.
