Ripe Sweet Jade kabocha squash after harvest

Winter Squash Seeds

Winter squash is harvested fully mature, cured, and stored for months. The lineup runs to about 50 varieties: Kabocha like Sweet Jade, delicata such as Sweet Dumpling, acorn types like Starry Night PMR, butternuts such as Waltham, and big Blue Hubbard. Many resist powdery mildew, and about half are organic. Harvest once the rind is hard and the stem has dried. Cure butternut and Kabocha for a week or two in a warm, dry spot before storing at 50 to 55°F.
