(That's not actually my name.) Wow. I myself don't like squash, but the rest of my family does, and they loved it. We even froze some for Thanksgivivg(even though it was harvested 2 months before)! It was the first time we grew squash, so we were puzzled as to why the seed packet said to plant them 6 feet apart. We ignored that and planted them 4 feet apart. The plant invaded the rest of our garden and almost invaded the neighbor's yard. Even though, it was still really fun to grow.

Harvesting & Storage: Harvest when stems begin to shrivel or you can no longer pierce the skin with a thumbnail, but be sure to harvest before the first hard frost. Cut squash from the vine leaving 2"—3" of stem attached. Allow to cure in the sun for 10 days to finish hardening the skins. Store in cool, dry conditions. To minimize the spread of rots, store in a single layer and do not allow squashes to touch.
