Cucurbita maxima 'Turban'
Winter Type
Rich orange, flattened fruits 20-25 cm (8-10") across with orange-red shoulders and prominent buttons. Brilliantly striped spotted red, orange white, green for a unique ornamental look but they're edible too! Prepare like other winter squash.
How to Grow
Squash are a hot weather crop. They need full sun and deep, rich, well drained, organic soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Before planting, work in lots of compost. Directly plant seed outdoors from late May to mid June 2.5 cm (1") deep in hills 2.4 m (8') apart with 4-6 seeds per hill. After germination, thin to 3 plants per hill. Seed can be started indoors 3 weeks before the plant out date. Squash do not transplant well-use paper or fibre pots that can be set directly in the soil. Protect mature squash from frost and cold temperatures.
Approx. 10 seeds/pkt.
