Days to germination: 7 to10 days Days to harvest: 45 to 70 days Light requirements: Full sun Water requirements: Regular watering, more frequent in dry weather Soil: Rich loose soil Container: Definitely Introduction Though zucchini may be the best known summer squash, the odd-looking pattypan is getting to be more popular with home gardeners. It’s small, round and kind of flat (some people call them flying saucer squash, or scallop squash). Not only are the fruits smaller, the plants are more compact as well (more bushy, less vining). This is making the pattypan very appealing to the small-space gardener. You can eat the tender squash either raw or cooked in a number of ways. The flesh is much lighter than winter squashes like butternut, but are still extremely healthy and packed with vitamin A. You can also get a sizable helping of vitamin C, fiber, potassium and manganese with a pattypan squash.
