Since squashes do not take well to transplanting, peat pots are the best option. Plant 2 seeds per pot, later clipping off the weaker seedling. Harden the seedlings by exposing them to weather for several hours a day for a week before transplanting them after the last frost once soil temps average above 65oF. Plant in very rich soil, 8-10 inches apart in rows 10-12 apart. To direct sow, plant the seeds a week or so after the last frost deep, 3-4 apart & thin to 8-10 apart. Avoid planting them with potatoes. Keep moist, but avoid soaking the leaves as this can lead to rot or mildew. When vines develop, adding a layer of much can be very beneficial.
