Blue Hubbard Squash 
Squashes 
Squash seed should be planted at about the 
same time and in the same manner as cucumbers 
and melons. The hills should be 9 feet apart 
each way, slightly elevated, and highly manured. 
Bush varieties may be planted closer together. 
Use plenty of seed, as the bugs will destroy 
some plants. 
Summer varieties, sow 4 ounces to 100 hills; 
4 pounds to an acre 
Winter varieties, 8 ounces to 100 hills; 
2 pounds to an acre
