Sowing Instructions:
Sow Squash Winter Buffy F1 Hybrid seeds indoors in pots 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost date, using a well-draining seed compost. Maintain a temperature of 18-22°C for germination. Once the seedlings are strong enough and the risk of frost has passed, harden them off and transplant them into fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny spot. Space the plants about 90 cm apart to allow for proper growth and airflow. Squash plants thrive in warm, sunny conditions and require regular watering, particularly during the fruit-setting stage. Ensure the soil remains moist but well-drained to promote healthy fruit development.
This robust F1 hybrid matures in approximately 90-100 days, producing large, uniform pumpkins that are easy to store through the winter. The thick, creamy flesh has a sweet, nutty flavour that intensifies when roasted, making it perfect for hearty dishes. With its high resistance to common squash diseases and excellent yield, Kew VegeTable Squash Winter Buffy F1 Hybrid is a dependable variety for gardeners seeking a versatile, long-lasting squash that can be enjoyed all season long. Ideal for both seasoned gardeners and beginners, it’s the perfect addition to any autumn vegetable garden.
