This Butternut Squash is NOT a Compact Plant Aug 24, 2011
By MadCarpenter Planted this combination in my garden this year. I've been vegetable gardening for a while, and was interested to try a supposedly well behaved version of butternut squash, as I know it can take over a small garden.
Good plant/BAD plant. BEWARE.
These seeds do indeed grow plants that quickly produce an abundant crop of nearly full sized good looking squash, but the plant is an absolute THUG in the garden. I mean it sprawled all over, happily setting fruit on top of other plants from six to eight feet away in all directions! Even my zucchini is afraid of this plant. I ended up pruning some of its vines to keep it somewhat in check.
If you have a limited amount of space to grow butternut squash in your garden, stick to a fully hybridized 'bush' form of this plant.
