Your butternuts were not mature. They won't taste anywhere near as good as if allowed to turn tan (usually) on the vine and then mature for 2 months in storage afterwards. They are also usually almost always a deeper orange color at maturity with seeds that are fully filled out.
I agree. The most important thing, from what I picked up on RU-vid is that the stem should turn to a light, golden brown color before harvesting, while retaining much of the stem as possible- which the author of the video did. However, the butternut squash needs to "cure" between 5-7 days and keep in a cool dry place. This set up was really impressive and a lot of time and energy was spent on this project. It's the small things that we don't do towards the end that can possibly prevent us from enjoying the most benefit from harvesting butternut squash. Great was made in growing the bn squash. Great project overall. I hope my turn out great this year. Best of luck to everyone growing this year!
They are beautiful, but here in Nebraska, we would let them mature more, getting a harder shell, and a buff brown color. The flavor is more like pumpkin then. That would be interesting to try at the immature stage.
Hello! I’m curious about where you were growing them, I saw the shades and fabric on the floor, was this in a sun room or a covered porch? I’m growing 1plant indoors and was wondering where yours were. I’m also curious about what the cup of bananas are for? Your butternut squash turned out beautiful, thank you for sharing!
How are the leaves looking so lush and healthy and green? How do you keep bugs from munching on them? Tips please😭 My natural/organic preticide doesn't seem to work.
Where do you get those styrofoam cubes? Love your channel, thanks for sharing. Also, how often did you feed the plants? You only showed bananas in the beginning. Thanks for answering please
- You can find styrofoam boxes at fruit stores - During the growing process, you alternately fertilize vermicompost or water with fish protein - ripe bananas - into plastic cups in styrofoam
