Honeynut Winter Squash – Cucurbita moschata
A modern heirloom favorite bred for rich flavor and perfect personal sized fruits. Honeynut produces small, deep orange squash with exceptionally sweet, concentrated flesh. Often compared to butternut but even richer. Vines are productive and compact, yielding uniform, early ripening fruits ideal for roasting, soups, and fall harvest displays. 25 Seeds
Growing Instructions
Planting time: Direct sow after frost when soil is warm, or start indoors 3–4 weeks before last frost.
Depth: 1 inch
Spacing: 24–36 inches apart; rows 5–6 feet apart
Sun: Full sun
Days to harvest: 90–105 days
Notes: Provide plenty of space for vines to sprawl. For best sweetness and storage quality, allow fruits to fully ripen and skins to harden on the vine. Cure for 10–14 days in a warm, dry place before storing.
