Summer squash seeds — courgettes, patty pans and crooknecks

Summer squash are the soft-skinned cucurbits picked young and tender — courgettes, patty pans, crooknecks and marrows that crop heavily through the warm months. They're some of the easiest, most productive plants in our gourds and squash range. First time growing them? Our vegetable growing guide gets you started.

Pick young, pick often. Regular picking keeps the plants cropping — and the calendar shows when to sow.

Courgettes and beyond

The ever-popular courgette leads the group, joined by colourful patty pans and crooknecks. Want types that store instead? See our winter squash. Many summer squash belong to the Cucurbita pepo family, and compact bush forms suit our container range.

Growing a heavy crop

Plant into rich soil (our soil guide helps), water deeply at the roots and feed once fruiting with our feeding guide. Pick while small and glossy — leave one to grow on and the plant slows down.

Glut on the way? Two or three plants feed a family — pick small and often to keep them coming.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is summer squash?
Soft-skinned squash eaten young — courgettes, patty pans, crooknecks and marrows.

When do I sow it?
After the last frost, or start indoors a few weeks earlier to plant out once warm.

How often should I pick?
Every couple of days, while the fruit is small and glossy.

Why has my plant stopped cropping?
A fruit left to mature signals the plant to slow down — keep picking to keep it going.

Can I grow it in pots?
Yes — choose compact bush types and a large container.
