Waltham Butternut Squash Planting Instructions:
1. When to Plant: Butternut squash needs a long, warm season. Direct sow after the soil has warmed to 70°F. If you have a short season, start indoors in peat pots 3 weeks before the last frost.
2. Preparation: Give these vines plenty of room to run! They love fertile soil enriched with organic matter. Planting in "hills" helps with drainage and root warmth.
3. Sowing: Plant 3-4 seeds per hill, 1 inch deep. Space hills 4-6 feet apart. Once seedlings are established, thin to the two strongest plants per hill.
4. Care: Keep the area weed-free until the vines take over. Mulching helps conserve moisture. Do not harvest until the skin is hard enough that you can't dent it with a fingernail and the stem has turned brown and "corky."
5. Pests and Diseases: Because Butternuts have solid stems, they are much more resistant to borers than other squash. To prevent mildew, ensure the plants have full sun and good airflow.
