Grow a true heirloom favorite with Cushaw Green Striped Pumpkin Squash Seeds — a beautiful, uniquely shaped pumpkin-squash hybrid that’s both ornamental and delicious! This Southern heirloom variety produces large, long-necked fruits with creamy white skin and bold green stripes, making them just as stunning for fall displays as they are in the kitchen. The flesh is deep orange, mildly sweet, and smooth, perfect for baking, roasting, or pureeing into pies, soups, and casseroles.

Cushaw squash is especially loved by gardeners in warm or humid climates because it’s incredibly heat-tolerant and pest-resistant, often outlasting other pumpkin and winter squash varieties that struggle with squash vine borers and mildew. Each vigorous vine can produce several large fruits, often weighing between 10–20 pounds, with long storage life once cured.

Squash growing tips: To control powdery mildew and other leaf diseases caused by mold, fungus, or bacteria, simply remove yellowing, damaged, or diseased leaves by hand once weekly to decrease the spread. Spray with 1 cup of 3% hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water to clean and disinfect if needed. Spray squash plants with BT (Bacillus thuringiensis) if you noticed chewed up leaves caused by worm/caterpillar infestations. Hand pollinate the female flowers to ensure they get pollinated and produce fruit. 

Planting Instructions
Germination: 5-10 days

Seed Sowing Depth: 1/2” deep 

Sowing: Direct sowing is preferred after your last spring frost date. In warmer climates can also direct sow at the end of summer for a fall harvest.  

How to harvest: For the best flavor and texture harvest when the stem piece connecting the squash to the vine is all dried out and brown. 

Days to maturity: 110 days

Common Diseases: Squash get a lot of leaf diseases caused by pathogens like molds, fungus spores, bacteria etc.... It is very common, so dont worry. Spray with 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water to clean and disinfect. Repeat every 5 days or so as a preventative, or until you notice the spread of the disease has stopped. 

Common Pests: Critters like rabbits love to munch on newly germinated seedlings, so protection from small animals might be required. If you notice the leaves are chewed up and there are small black, green, or orange balls, worms/caterpillars are chewing up the plants. Spray with BT or spinosad to treat for the worms.

Good to have if you've never seen the iTEP exam, but don't rely on it to boost your scores
Format: Paperback
This book is good in that it comes with two practice tests: one in the beginning of the book, one in the end of the book. The grading rubric is helpful too. However, the actual guide part of the book, doesn't help too much with how to improve test scores. What I like least about this guide is that it won't tell you which questions you answered incorrectly on the practice exams. A good test prep guide will tell you what you answered incorrectly, and will tell you what logic to follow to get to the correct answer. In the reading passages, it would be nice to know where I can find evidence to justify the "correct" answer. In the grammar section, it would be nice to know which rule I'm violating. Any test guide should always come with some testing strategies. I.E. If this question is taking up too much time, skip it and go to the next one. This guide lacks simple strategies like that. Simple strategies like that could be useful when incorporated into this guide because there are certain sections on the exam that you can go back to previous questions, but some sections where the "back" button is disabled. Overall, if you've never seen an iTEP exam before, this book is certainly helpful in that it will give you an idea of what you will be testing for. However, this book alone won't help you achieve a score of 6. The table of contents itself will tell you there are only 86 pages of actual content covering test material. That's not enough to cover how to excel in the exam.
