About Supersett
Supersett is a hybrid yellow straightneck summer squash bred for a concentrated, prolific fruit set and continuous production. The fruit is smooth and bright yellow with a straight neck and mild, tender flesh. Its open, upright bush habit keeps the squash exposed and simple to harvest.
Growing Supersett Summer Squash
Set plants in full sun about 2 to 3 feet apart once the soil has warmed. Because it sets fruit heavily, harvest young at 4 to 6 inches and pick every day or two so the plant keeps producing. Watch for squash bugs, vine borers, and powdery mildew, and provide steady moisture during fruiting.
