Acorn squash

Question

I have two small acorn squash plants, about 18 in. tall and full of blossoms. When will they start of putting out squash? Not rushing, just want to know.

Answer 1

It is hard to say an exact time, but squash plants produce both male (non-producing) and female blossoms. It is quite common for the plants to produce more males early in the season. Be patient and soon the females will appear along with some fruit.
