W1465 Mobao Early Green Squash, 15 Seeds

Variety characteristics:

• W1465 Mobao Early Dark Green Squash (Cucurbita moschata) is an early Chinese squash selected for prolific female flowering, close fruiting nodes and an extended harvest of attractive dark green squash. The vigorous vines are grown along the ground without requiring a trellis, making the variety well suited to open fields, low tunnels and protected early-season production.
Young squash can be harvested at approximately 1.1–1.5 pounds as early as 45–50 days after emergence under favorable conditions. The fruit develops a smooth, very dark green rind with an elongated cylindrical to slightly club-shaped form. When allowed to grow larger, individual squash typically reach approximately 2.2–4.4 pounds.
Plants have strong repeat-setting potential and commonly produce several marketable fruits when young squash are harvested regularly. Allowing fruit to reach a larger size generally reduces the number of additional fruits the plant can mature. This dual-harvest character makes Mobao suitable for both tender young-squash production and larger, more mature cooking squash.
