Winter squash 'Orange Magic'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Orange Magic is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. A soil ph of between 6.1 and 7.5 is ideal for Orange Magic as it does best in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Sow 1.17 inches (3.0 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 2.28 feet (70.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Orange Magic about 10 days before your last frost date.

As Orange Magic is tender, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
