Additional Details

When to Sow Aldente F1 Winter Squash Seeds

April to May under glass or mid-May to June outdoors. Plant out May to June.

Harvest

September to October.

Where to Sow

Sow seed on edge 1.5cm (1/2") deep to prevent rotting in pots or trays during April to May 2.5cm (1") apart under glass at 20°C (68°F) using good quality seed sowing compost.
Sow outdoors mid-May to June direct into growing site 1.5cm (1/2") deep 2 to 3 seeds in each position 60cm (24") apart.

What to do Next

Greenhouse sowings should be gradually hardened off once they have developed the first pair of rough leaves and transplanted to growing site in late-May to early-June 60-90cm (24-36") apart once all risk of frost has passed. Outdoor sowings should be thinned to one plant per station.

Handy Tip

Prefers a deep humus rich soil for both the goodness and its water retention qualities.
