Instructions Chevron Down Chevron Forward

After all danger of frost has passed, in a sunny location, sow 5 seeds spaced evenly over a hill 9 - 12 inches tall and 2 feet across. When plants are 3 inches tall, thin by cutting all but the 3 strongest seedlings per hill. To avoid weeding, mulch heavily around plants and in the rows.

Planting Depth: 1"

Seed Spacing: Sow your Fordhook Zucchini Organic Squash seeds roughly 4' apart in a row, keeping rows approximately 3' apart.

Nutrient Care Instructions: Apply SUPERthrive once per week. Soak in solution of 1/4 tsp per gal for 15 min. or longer depending on size and type.

Suggestions Chevron Down Chevron Forward

Pick summer squash early and often. Not picking will stop the production of the plants. Ready to harvest just after blossom falls from fruit and fruit can be easily dented with a thumbnail.

Reviews

Great packaging

"Love my seeds. Easy instructions. Easy to grow. Definitely recommend. Next time you want to get seats for your garden, I suggest grabbing these."

Melissa (5/5)

Great product

"I planted these Zucchini seeds about eight weeks ago, and they’ve performed well, with quick germination and vigorous growth. The zucchinis produced are flavorful, though a few plants experienced minor powdery mildew issues. Overall, I’m satisfied and would recommend these seeds for their reliability and productivity."

Mrnicky26 (5/5)

Quick Germination, Healthy Plants

"I was very happy with the strong plants that grew from these seeds. Germination was quick, and about 85% of them grew into strong and healthy plants."

Carolynm96 (5/5)

Growing very well

"The seeds are growing very well. I haven’t had a chance to taste them yet, but the plant is thriving despite the recent heavy downpour that we had. The seeds arrived in a very sturdy packaging, so everything felt very secure. I love eating home planted foods, and I’m looking forward to seeing how these turn out."

Socdud23 (5/5)

Great seeds that really grow

"I only received these seeds three days ago, and they're already sprouting little baby squash plants. I highly recommend it, and hopefully, I will be able to follow up when my squash babies start growing in May. Thank you, Walmart, for the prompt delivery."

Karinar161 (4/5)

These grow amazing and fast

"My experience went very well with these seeds. I did germanation, and it actually took less than 10 days like normal. Once I saw roots, I moved to the soil and watered them inside, where they grew fast and tall. These seeds were easy to work with and grow very well. I love to garden and I believe these plants will grow well and tall and fulfilled squash."

Ericaleigh O. (5/5)

Fast to germinate ! High quality !

"I couldn’t believe how fast these seeds sprouted! I think they are great high quality seeds. They were nice and big seeds and they all looked healthy and perfect. Now I can’t wait to get them separated and start growing giant zucchini’s!"
