My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Zone 7 Winter Squash -- too late to plant??

17 years ago

Hello all,

I have most of my winter squash up and running. I have a really sunny spot that DH has put a nice new raised bed to which he attached a 16 foot cattle panel for trellis. Is it too late in Central Virginia to plant winter squash with a 90-100 maturity date?? I've never planted winter this late. If anyone here has done this please report if you have a good harvest of squash. Thanks!!

DL
