Growing instructions
Direct sow after frost, or start indoors 2-3 weeks earlier. Transplant in hills spaced 6' apart, 3 plants per hill, or in rows 36" apart. Plants can grow 6' or more, so give plenty of space to take over. Mulch early to help suppress weeds. Harvest when squash are buff colored with no trace of green. Cure in a dry, warm place for a week or so, then store in a cool, dry, dark place.

    I live in zone 3 and these Are producers and look great in the garden growing in all kinds of crazy shapes. Taste is yummy and keep perfectly over the winter.

    Better than Butternut
    We had much more success with the Canadian Crookneck here in New England than we’ve had in the past with butternut squash and we like the taste of this variety even better. Hope it comes back in stock for next year.
