Acorn Squash

Dustykitten

I want to grow some acorn squash can somebody tell me if they have seen seeds anywhere or somewhere selling the squash.

I've tried many places with no luck - I only want to grow one plant.

There is a six pack of squash seeds in both wilko and poundland, I think there were arcorn squash in those. I've had a look on the sites but are unable to find them.

I have read here of folk who use supermarket ones to eat, then use the seed from them

I however used purchased seed, and have only one plant to show for it. First, and probably last, time of growing them

Farway I have ordered some seed so I'll let you know how I get on. I haven't found any in the shops to eat and use the seeds. I did read the other day that if you have the wrong variety for your region then the flowers drop off. Funny squash is usually so easy to grow.

I have accidentally grown Acorn squash from the seeds from a bought one (organic box though not supermarket).

Last year we moved the compost bin and last autumn, we had a lovely trail of Acorn squashes trailing accross the garden where the bin used to be :j. They must have grown from seeds we put in the composter :T. ! I'm sorry I don't know where to buy them but definitely try from a bought one.
