If you do harvest it as a mature winter squash the flavor will be improved if you let the fruit “cure” in a cool dark part of your home for about 3 months before eating.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little River Cooperative","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32774337724498,"sku":"SEED053","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0535\/4461\/products\/SESE-walthamsquash.jpg?v=1600279825","url":"https:\/\/littlerivernursery.co\/products\/waltham-butternut-squash-seed-packet","provider":"Little River Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
