- **Planting Time:** Sow Delicata Winter Squash seeds after the danger of frost has passed and the soil has warmed up, typically in late spring or early summer.
- **Sowing:** Plant seeds 1 inch deep and about 3-4 feet apart in rows, leaving ample space for the sprawling vines.
- **Sunlight:** Delicata Winter Squash thrives in full sun, so ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight per day.
- **Watering:** Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Squash plants benefit from regular, deep watering.
**Harvesting:**
