Majority of squash seeds were started on April 9th. Started off around 14 plants in total. Glad that I started them off a little later as the cold nights have meant keeping the young plants in my grow room for much longer. Will need to have 6 final plants, so spares are for pollination and in case of ribbon vine etc. I’ve managed to get some great top 10 seed together and have a great line up for next season too. Squash seeds started and early results...... 1. 1844.5 Holub > Looking fairly good. Would have preferred it a little more vigorous at this stage, but will be planting this in a prime polytunnel position. 2. 1109 Jutras. > Looking excellent 3. 1109 Jutras. > Looking excellent 4. 966.9 Kloch. > Looking Excellent - Thanks for the seed Kevin! 5. 1701 Jutras. > Looking good 6. 2118 Jutras. > Twisted cots as expected - poor plant 7. 1935.5 Jutras. > Looking good 8. 1288 Kline > Nice plant 9. 1282.5 Kline. > Nice Plant. This will be my pollinator 10. 1652 Zappa > Nice plant - Thanks Lee 11. 1486 Jarvis. > Did not germinate 12 3x 877 Barratt. > Looking good
