Description

Bears heavily no matter how steamy the weather gets

Days to Maturity: 47

If other squash refuse to set when the temperature climbs in your garden, Summerpac is the crookneck you've been looking for.

Smooth and wart-free, these 5- to 6-inch fruits set in huge numbers on nearly spineless bush-habit plants. Bright yellow and firm, they are delicious raw or cooked.

Summerpac is a reliably heavy bearer, right through the dog-days of August. It's the hot-climate favorite.

Summer squash ripens during the hot summer months and, thin-skinned, is best eaten fresh. Sow seeds 1 inch deep directly into the garden after the danger of frost is past. Thin the seedlings to 24 inches apart, or plant several seeds in hills 4 feet apart and then thin to 2 plants per hill. (For even earlier harvests, start seeds indoors).

Good Flavor and Productive

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

We grew these last year for the first time and will grow them again this year. The plants got large with leaves the size of dinner plates. The squash arrived faster than other summer squash varieties we planted and there seemed to be 2-3 squash on these plants at all times. They taste as good or better than any other yellow squash we've grown. Pick them while they are 5-6" long for the smallest seeds. The plants held up pretty well for a few weeks before succumbing to a squash bug infestation. Would definitely recommend this variety.

I bought these seeds last year. I had bad luck with squash in 2010&2011. We had severe drought and 100 plus degrees. 2012 was the same but I harvested a lot of squash.
