We don't have a root cellar or anything like one.

Sorry; didn't mean that literally! Any dry indoor relatively

I used to store Tahitian Squash under my bed for about 6 months. Aug to
Jan. A wonderful squash sort of like a very big sweet carrot . 10 to
15 lbs with some 25. Heavy feeder and a sun lover.
