Squash Crown Prince F1 - 6 Industry Quality Seeds - Plastic Free Packaging

This beautiful steel grey skinned squash with deep orange flesh can grow to about 4kg(9lbs) in size. Crown Prince is  excellent for long term storage over the winter.

Sow April and May underglass or May to June outdoor. Sow seeds 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.

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 60cm (24") apart once all risk of frost has past. Outdoor sowings should be thinned to one plant per station.

Fruits normally mature in September to October and store well for use throughout the winter months. Store in a warm and dry place for up to 5 months.

All orders are normally sent by the next working day in padded plastic free envelopes. I don't use plastic or selotape and all packaging is 100% recyclable with your paper.
