Squash: Winter - Waltham Butternut Squash planting instructions:

• Conditions: Squash plants grow best in warm soil, full sun, and are very sensitive to frost. Start seeds 2 weeks after the last frost, after the soil reaches 70 F.
• Spacing: Plant the seeds 1" deep and 4" apart in hills or mounds.
• Care: Mulch the plants to help maintain moisture. Plants will grow for about 85 days.

Squash: Winter - Waltham Butternut Squash harvesting instructions:

When their stems turn a light yellow-green color, the plants are ready for harvest. Use garden shears to separate the fruit from the plant, as the rings will be thick and rough.
