How to Choose the Right Acorn Squash Seeds

Consider the following when selecting the best acorn seeds to meet your needs:

  • Primary purpose: Some acorn squash is grown purely for decorative displays and crafting, while others are prized for their flavor and culinary use. Choose one that aligns with your preferred use, or one that's capable of both for maximum versatility.
  • Available space: Acorn squash varieties have different growth habits. Bush varieties are more compact and better for smaller spaces, while growers with larger properties can choose semi-bush or vining options.
  • Length of growing season: As a warm season crop, acorn squash has limited cold tolerance. If you live in a climate with a shorter growing season, it's best to select a varietal with fewer days to maturity.
