I`m seeding mine with tomato food twice a week. They are a bit bigger than yours though. I`ll be interested to see what others recomend as it`s my first time with squash.
I can remember when it were all fields round `ere.

I agree with the tomato feed. When I do the toms - I do the squash/pumpkins :)

Hi.

Squash like a high potash feed like comfrey or, tomato to help develop the fruits.

My spaggetti squash and invincible pumpkins habe gone crazy with setting fruit. I've counted 15 squash on the spaggetti from 1 plant.

However, the not so big Atlantic Giants are struggling to set.
Top tip for camping....don't go.
