SQUASH 
Time to Plant—Sow the seeds of Summer Squash 
from May 1 to July 1 and Winter Squash from 
May 1 to June 1. 
Soil Preparation—Prepare the hills by spading in 
two or three shovelfuls of well-rotted manure to 
each hill. If this is not available, work in about a 
handful of commercial fertilizer to each hill. 
Planting—lIt is best to sow from 6 to 8 seeds in each 
hill about 1/2 in. deep. When these -are well up, 
thin out, leaving only 2 or 3 of the strongest plants 
to grow in each hill. For Summer Squash allow about 
4 feet each way between the hills and 7 feet each 
way for Winter varieties. 
1 ounce of Summer Squash will plant about 50 hills. 
1 ounce of Winter Squash will plant about 15 hills.
