Thompson & Morgan Vegetable Squash Baked Potato (Winter) - 12 Seeds

£2.99

Bringing a whole new look to the acorn squash market, this variety has a typical pale tan skin with off-white internal flesh which looks and tastes like baked potato when roasted. With more fibre and less carbohydrate than potatoes, they’ll make a great addition to the vegetable patch.

Sow 13mm (½in) deep in 7cm (3in) pots of a good, freedraining, moist seed compost, at 20-25°C (68-77°F). Place pots in a propagator or seal them inside a polythene bag until after germination which takes approx. 5-7 days.

Gradually acclimatise to outdoor conditions for a few days before planting out after all risk of frost has passed, 90cm (36in) apart. Can also be sown direct outdoors once the soil has warmed. Sow two seeds every 90cm (36in) and later thin to the strongest seedling.
