Squash (Summer) - Lebanese White Bush

Days to Maturity | 45 days
The Lebanese, White Squash is a favorite amongst many home gardeners. Most would recommend planting 2-4 bushes to feed a family throughout the season, while for smaller families or couples, 2 plants would be plenty. It really depends on how much squash you love to eat and whether or not you're growing other varieties at the same time. We do however recommend planting at least two plants for better pollination. The better the pollination, the better the fruit count! It's been reported that some gardeners have experienced up to 15 fruits per plant, however, that is on the high side. Most plants will produce 4-6 fruit, again depending on the pollination and other variables that come into play. There's just not an exact answer for this. You're almost at the mercy of mother nature on this, but most would agree it's a great producer! They're better picked when young and tender unless you're planning on stuffing them, then baking. In that case, they are let to grow larger, again, which will keep the plant from producing more fruit if you don't harvest regularly from them. So the bottom line is, if you want more fruit, harvest more regularly and when the squash is young and tender. This will send signals to the plant to bloom and flower again to keep reproducing. Generally, this plant will get 2-3 feet high, but regular fertilizing would, of course, alter these numbers as well. If your soil is in good condition with lots of healthy organic matter, you should have no problem getting plants that reach this size. May we suggest growing on black plastic for weed & insect control?
Additional Details
Though considered a vegetable in cooking, botanically speaking, squash is a fruit (being the receptacle for the plant's seeds). Squash can be served fresh (in salads) and cooked (squash stuffed with meat, fried squash, baked squash).

What are Marconi peppers?
Marconi peppers, also known as Italian frying peppers, are elongated, sweet peppers that are typically harvested when they are green or red. These peppers are prized for their thin walls, making them perfect for sautéing, grilling, or roasting. With a mild, slightly sweet flavor, Marconi peppers are a favorite in Mediterranean cuisine.
How to grow Marconi pepper plants
When planting Marconi pepper seeds, it's important to choose a sunny spot in your garden with well-draining soil. These plants thrive in warm weather, so make sure to plant them after the last frost date in your area. Space the plants about 18 inches apart to allow for proper growth.
Water the plants regularly, ensuring that the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Fertilize the plants every few weeks with a balanced fertilizer to promote healthy growth. As the peppers begin to develop, provide support for the plants to prevent them from bending or breaking under the weight of the fruit.
Harvesting and using Marconi peppers
Marconi peppers can be harvested when they reach their full size, typically around 6-8 inches in length. You can pick the peppers when they are green for a milder flavor or wait until they turn red for a sweeter taste. Simply cut the peppers from the plant using a pair of scissors or pruning shears.
These versatile peppers can be used in a variety of dishes, from stir-fries and salads to sandwiches and pasta dishes. Roast them for a smoky flavor, or pickle them to enjoy their crisp texture year-round. The possibilities are endless with Marconi peppers in your kitchen!
Are you ready to add the Marconi pepper plant to your garden? With the right care and attention, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest of these delicious peppers throughout the growing season. Happy gardening!

Description
Catnip is not the most beautiful plant you can grow, but it’s quite useful. The small spikes of white speckled flowers attract pollinators and beneficial insects to the vegetable garden. And the same compound that sends cats flying to the moon also sends mosquitoes flying away. Also repels ants, aphids, cabbage moths, cabbage white butterfly, cabbage worms, potato beetles, cucumber beetles, flea beetles, Japanese beetles, mice, roaches, slugs, squash bugs, voles, and weevils, which makes it a great companion for just about everyone (except Parsley). Reseeds easily and can become invasive. Use the minty leaves to flavor tea, pasta, vegetables, soups, and sauces.
- Mosquito repellent
- Can be invasive
- Grows 2'-3' tall
- Good for containers
As a medicinal herb, Catnip has been used internally to treat anxiety, colds, cough, fever, insomnia, nervousness, restlessness, sore throat, and upset stomach, and externally to treat black eyes and other bruises.⚠️ Medicinal properties are presented as information only, and are not a recommendation or prescription for use.
