Zucchini, zucchini, and pumpkins are popular crops for growing in beds, but for some reason you hear about squash much less often. It's a pity, because they are no less interesting and tasty fruits.

When to harvest

Squash grow quite quickly. You won't have to wait a long time for harvesting either, because it is customary to remove the fruits when they are not ripe.

Young squashes have a thin skin, and the middle is seedless. This is the best stage for cooking.

When you see that the fruits have grown to 7-12 cm in diameter, you can remove them. The harvest grows 2-3 times a week. It must be cut together with the stalk.
