Growing Tips:
Squash is pollinated by insects and requires about 1/2 a mile of isolation from other varieties of the same species for seed saving. After fully mature, cure in dry/sunny location for one week. Can be stored cool dry through winter. Flavor sweetens over time.
Gently harvest fruit once rind is dry and hard.
