Acorn Squash-when to pick
My Acorn Squash (maybe Table Queen) look mature and size has stopped
increasing. They are large, heavy, dark green with thick stems. They
have been that color and size for weeks. When to remove from vine is my
question. Vines still look healthy with large green leaves. No new
blossoms. Can the squash continue to ripen by hanging on the healthy
vines all summer long? I live in hot San Fernando Valley. Every day,
near noon time (90F or hotter), these plants show extreme wilting leaves.
Thanks, Dave_s
