Planting Tips:
Waltham Butternut squash grows best when seeds are planted directly in warm soil after the danger of frost has passed. Plant in fertile, well-drained soil and allow plenty of space for vines to spread. Water consistently during the growing season and mulch to help retain moisture. Harvest when the skin hardens and turns a deep tan color, leaving a short section of stem attached for better storage.
