Reply To: big squash plant but only tiny squash?

Hi Charles – thought it was worth updating this – on 1 Sept only 1 or 2 tiny squash – 6 weeks later on 12 Oct I harvested one solitary but humongous squash weighing over 10 kg – nature is incredible. (I did pinch off the growing tips in early Sept but it took off again in all directions.) Turns out it’s a Buttercup not a Queensland Blue – looking forward to a squash soup winter!
