50 days — The bush-type plants of 'Yellow Bush Scallop' summer squash produce nice yields of scallop-shaped fruit with bright yellow skin. Best used at the immature stage as a "mini vegetable" or at any point thereafter. The flesh has a creamy texture and is very flavorful. It is an extremely old variety that predates the commercial seed trade. Each packet contains four grams, which is approximately 38 to 40 seeds.

Planting Instructions:
Choose a location that has warm, well-drained and fertile soil. Work in plenty of organic matter and mulch to conserve moisture.
Sow directly into the garden after any threat of frost has past. Sow one inch deep in hills or rows spaced 24 to 30 inches apart.
Harvest when the fruit is six to eight inches long or still tender. Harvest will be lengthened if you keep picking.
