W1470 Nenbai Yichuanling Squash, 15 Seeds

Variety characteristics:

• W1470 Nenbai Yichuanling Tender Squash (Cucurbita maxima) is an extra-early Asian squash selected specifically for tender young-fruit and edible-blossom production. Vigorous vines develop a high proportion of female flowers and can carry several rapidly enlarging fruits at the same time under favorable growing and pollination conditions.
The high-round young fruits feature an attractive pale green rind covered with creamy white mottling and fine net-like markings. Under suitable temperatures, fruits can exceed approximately 9 ounces within 7–8 days after flowering. Harvested at this stage, the rind remains tender, the pale yellow flesh is crisp and the flavor is pleasantly mild and sweet.
Regular picking supports continued flowering and fruit production. The variety can be grown along the ground at wider spacing or trained onto a sturdy A-frame trellis for intensive vertical production.
