I'm in Montreal we got snow, rain etc!! Today it's sunny but a bit cold. I heard more snow will come.Sorry from me too! I had a big bushy beautiful Scotch Bonnet plant for several years (it was actually my Christmas tree one year) and then inadvertently left it outside and the frost killed it.
You're early enough in the year to start more though. I put in several varieties of squash seedlings in mid or late June last year and had a decent harvest. I think we have similar weather.
Thx Hun! I hope they come out strongerGlad your going to try again sorry you lost your first ones
Thx so Much Hun for this helpful info I will do this!!Hello, ilovemygarden1, Sorry about your loss of your seedlings. It is way too early to be setting seedlings out. I am your neighbour in NB and I have just planted my peppers and tomato seeds. They need about 8 weeks to grow before setting out in the garden. They should be big enough around the second week of June. It is way too cool before that. If I were you I would not start squash for no sooner than 4 weeks before setting out in garden. Spaghetti squash is a summer squash and they grow rather quickly. I won't start my winter squash until mid May as I don't want them to be too big to set in the garden. Start your sets in the house in a south facing window if you have one. If not just pick the sunniest place you have and after they have grown just gradually get them used to the outside temps. Good luck!
Thx I will try!! EekSo sorry for your loss. I would like to encourage you to try again and get the plants in when the sun has set each day to avoid unexpected rain or snow.
