Cucurbita moschata Lugo F1

Cucurbita moschata Lugo F1

Medium-sized nutmeg squash with good yields.

Flatter than Hambra, beautifully ribbed, weight about 4 – 5 kg. Flesh lighter, but with a special, fruity note.

Moderately climbing, good yield. Requires warmth, should definitely be pre-cultivated in Central Europe and requires a sunny location in a good summer, ripening when the color begins to turn into ocher brown, or, as is usual with nutmeg pumpkins, when the white patina appears on the skin.

Nutmeg pumpkins can be harvested at the beginning of ripening in a room with around 20 ° C and ripened within 3 to 5 weeks and will change color to full ripeness without any problems. The quality of the meat also improves here.

Ripening time: 100-110 days.

Lugo F1 vines moderately.

Cucurbita moschata require a lot of heat and is therefore better to be pre-cultivated. Varieties with a ripening time of up to 110 days also thrive in cold regions.

Optimum germination at 24-30o C. When sowing stick the pointed side of the seed down or lay them flat. Do not keep the seed too moist. After germination, place in a brighter and cooler place.

For Lugo F1 we ​​recommend 1-2 square meters per plant.

Possible pests: snails, birds, mice, lice, powdery mildew, virus.
