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.

When harvest squash??

21 years ago

Its me, the new guy, with yet another question. Some of the acorn squash I have planted are actually growing and thriving- a couple of them are the size of softballs. Seems to me these are not harvested until fall. But how do I know WHEN to harvest them and WHEN to eat them?

Thanks once again, oh learned ones.
