Vegetable Spaghetti Winter Squash
Growing Vegetable Spaghetti Winter Squash
‘Vegetable Spaghetti’ is an heirloom winter squash prized for its pale yellow flesh that separates naturally into spaghetti-like strands after cooking. Oblong fruits are produced heavily on long vines and provide a distinctive alternative to traditional pasta-style dishes.
Start ‘Vegetable Spaghetti’ indoors for transplanting or sow directly where conditions allow. Plant seeds about ½ to 1 inch deep, space plants 18 to 36 inches apart, and grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant variety thrives during warm weather.
Ready to harvest in about 95 days, pick fruits once fully mature and the pale yellow rind has hardened.
Mild and versatile, ‘Vegetable Spaghetti’ is excellent served with sauces, used in everyday cooking, and kept for storage.
