Thank you for all the information you provided in this video. I started a compost pile last year, and, lo, and behold, a sapling appeared in the spring. I transferred it to my garden area (no dig method on this plant). I had no idea what it was. Lol. I thought it might be a cucumber plant. Finally, a butternut squash started growing. I'm so excited. I love butternut squash. I wasn't sure when to harvest it, but thanks to your video, now I do.

Thanks so much for sharing. I'm in Kingston, Jamaica and sowed butternut squash seeds from Burpee Gardens (eventually thinned to 3 plants) for the 1st time on January 3rd. I followed your hand pollination method and was successful. The 1st squash is growing nicely but now the vine is shriveling and seems to be dying although the fruit still looks healthy. 1 other plant now has a pollinated squash and the other is still only showing male flowers...the vines and leaves look OK but not as lush as yours did....not having any issues with powdery mildew. Please tell me what can I do about the dying vine? They're all getting full sun and are being watered almost daily if there's no rain. Help!!

I had planted few seeds from one butternut squash. I have 5 plants from them in which 4 flowers have bloomed so far and there are so many yet to bloom. All the bloomed flowers till now have been male flowers, does it mean rest of the flowers are going to be male as well? Can there be female and male flowers in the same vine? This is so far the best video I have found on how to grow butternut squash from seeds. Love it. Thanks a lot for all the efforts you have put in making this video.

@@janetwhitney7432 I'm in Malahide, so it's probably a bit warmer where you are, isn't it? :) Thank you, Janet, and I hope your plants continue to thrive as well :) It's amazing how quickly they grow, isn't it? I'm growing my courgettes vertically as well, but for my butternut squashes I got a balcony railing planter, and I will let them trail downwards or across the railing, we'll see how it goes :)

In that container (18” by 15”), how many plants did you keep? I have this size container and 3 saplings. Would that be too many?
