Magdalena Big Cheese

USDA Zone 9B. Elev 1450’. This squash did very well in my irrigated garden. A large plant that grew up and over the arch And made for it. The squash tastes great using recipes for butter nut squash. Easy to grow and great yields.

Ordered these in the fall, so I. Have not had the chance to plant. Anxiously waiting for spring to arrive to plant my seed. The seeds looked healthy and yes I did receive my order.

This vegetable does very well in Tucson. It is both a summer squash and a winter squash. If you pick one when it's very young, you have a summer squash. If you let it go, you can harvest a huge winter squash in the fall. Careful, it will take over your whole yard!

Every seed I planted mid spring sprouted.

I planted these pumpkins in late in season about 85 days before first frost . I grew them three sisters style and they gained frost protection from the corn and are still growing after 4 frosts . Next time I will grow them earlier. They gave me 8 good sized pumpkins.
