2026 GTS Crop Species Grow Reports: Winter Squash (Cucurbita Maxima)

Hello, winter squash growers! This is the place to share your C. maxima journey in 2026. This year, Going to Seed offered a kabocha mix and ‘The Other Ones’ mix. If you are planting one or both mixes, we’d like to know how they do, too.

As always, we encourage you to keep the healthiest plants and share seeds from your best-tasting fruits with your community and/or Going to Seed. The more returns we get each year, the more diverse and resilient our seed mixes will become, helping new growers establish adapted plants in their gardens.

The attached zine was customized for the Salt Lake City, UT area, but there is general information that may be useful to you. Thanks for being a part of this community.

Best wishes for a great growing season!
