Squash Summer – Patty Pan Benning’s Green Tint – Cucurbita pepo
Soil & Water: Enrich soil heavily with mature compost. Plant in full sun and water moderately letting soil dry between watering.
Planting & Growing: Start seeds indoors 3-4 weeks before the last frost, or sow seed directly once soils are at least 70F and the danger of frost has passed. Provide squash plants with deep mounds of organic matter, rich soil, and heavy, even water. All squash are extremely frost sensitive, so use mulch to heat soils in early spring and row covers to protect from frost at both ends of the growing cycle, especially in short growing seasons.
