The Starke Ayres Gem Squash Rolet is a high-yielding, compact-growing variety, widely appreciated for its sweet flesh and uniform fruit size. It is best sown in seed trays or directly into well-drained soil, ensuring a spacing of 40 cm between plants and 150 cm between rows.
Seedlings require consistent moisture during germination, taking approximately 5–10 days to sprout. Pressing down the soil after sowing enhances root establishment, while regular watering supports vigorous plant growth.
Harvesting occurs approximately 60–90 days after planting, producing medium-sized, firm squash ideal for roasting, steaming, and soups.
