85 to 100 days — 'Sweet Dumpling' vines are a medium length, reaching around five to six feet. Fruit are small, ivory-colored with dark green stripes, ribbed, round with flattened tops, and weigh up to one pound. The flesh is bright orange, tender, and very sweet. They store well for up to four months, and reportedly do not require curing. Originally bred and introduced by Johnny's Selected Seed. Each packet contains three grams, which is approximately 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, as squash are heavy water consumers.
Sow directly in garden after threat of frost has passed. Seed will not germinate if soil is too cold. Sow one inch deep in hills or rows spaced 24 to 30 inches apart. You may also start seed indoors three to four weeks before transplanting.
