This winter squash is very similar to the sweet dumpling squash. The only difference is the size! Delicata is a large winter squash around 1-3 pounds each and can be stored for months still staying fresh. Vines produce 8-10 fruits per plant. The squash is smooth, creamy, and sweet. A classic old variety is grown for centuries. This style of squash is one of the oldest datings back almost 3,000 years!
But Mrs. Squash Bone Borer insists on finding my vines no matter what. I'd love to succeed in growing these to fruit production.
I wanted to grow a bunch of different types of squash and Delicata was one of the varieties that I was interested based on looks. When I got a nice ripe one, I cut it up into slices, seasoned it with a little garlic and just baked it. Way better than chips, and super snackable!
Easily germinated. Easily grew. It stuck its nose up at the chicken-wire trellis, and preferred to sink its feet freely into the ground. Who can blame it?
I didn't have as much squash as I would have liked, but they were delicious & sweet. Need to plant them in a sunnier location next year..and plant more.
Sweet and yummy. I covered with wire mesh to protect from critters. One of my favorite winter squash.
Received the seeds quickly.

Nice big phat roots on 'em too, honestly the bed wasn't even prepared for how big the roots were. Which is a good "problem" to have if I'm being unclear
This is only my third go with gardening and so naturally I thought: “I oughta plant a few extras just in case”. Shortly after sown, 22 of 24 of the sunspot dwarf sunflower seeds have germinated! No clue where I’ll put them all yet but it’s a problem I’m happy to have. 🙂 Note:
One was not in the photo, I hadn’t moved it over to the larger pot yet. Also, If you’re a first time grower of sunflowers, please know this will not be enough room for this many of them. This photo is of a temporary home for them for just a few days while I sort more space. I didn’t plan to have so many growing this year. #Grow Bigger
This seed germinated beautifully!
I ordered two Natchez Blackberry plugs. If I had known the quality I would have ordered more! There was great care taken into consideration when it came to shipping these live plants. They arrived fully intact with not even a broken leaf. I'm hoping to expand my berry patch with thornless berries. Im tired of the old way of leaving sweat and tears in the berry patch. I'll definitely order more if given the chance.
Trying something I heard about. Planted sweet peas in the extra space around my asparagus. So far, so good.
