    #18836698 - 09/13/13 12:05 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

i only can find info about the whole plant

but i have a bunch of feral squashes growing on my property, they are about the size of large acorns right now, and i got about 30 days till frost

do you think they can mature in time?

You should be able to get a few to mature by the end of the growing season. Squashes can usually take anywhere from 2-4 weeks to mature depending on several factors like weather, temperature, what zone you are in and things like is it getting adequate light, water and nutrients. If all these factors are where they need to be then you could probably get a few squashes to be fully mature within 2 weeks. Good luck!

thanks, one plant must of had a head start cause i picked a full sized one and baked it with butter and brown sugar it was really good

so im positive one plant is acorn squash, i think 2 are too

and on, the largest im not sure what they are but there is like 10 squashes growing on it


do you think i should cut some off to let the others grow faster?

if so how many?, do i leave one or two?

or leave like half of them, 5?

You can leave them all unless they show signs of disease or malnourishment. Cutting off ones that haven't developed yet will probably have only a minor effect on speeding up the growth of the others as it still will take a certain amount of time for the squash to fully develop. What you may want to consider is doing some defoliation if there are dead or dying leaves covering the immature squashes.

Definitely not. Squash take about a 2-3 months to get to full size if I remember right.

Oh, if it's a hard shelled squash that definitely won't mature within 30 days, they take a lot longer to grow. You might be able to get something out of it but it won't be great. As someone else suggested, cut off other immature fruits that aren't growing as well... they'll only suck more nutrients from the plant and deprive the other fruits that are growing well.
