1 Total of 15 harvests. Planting was July 28, 2016. Harvests 1-5 occurred on 31 August; 2, 5, 7 and 9 September; Harvests 6-10 occurred on 12, 14, 16, 19 and 21 September; Harvests
11-15 occurred on 23, 26, 28 and 30 September; 3 October.
2 Marketable fruit are graded into U.S. No. 1 (requires younger and more tender squash than U.S. No. 2 which are permitted to be more mature and allows greater surface area to be
affected by defects).
3Culls consisted primarily of misshaped fruit.
4Fruit were discolored or rough/disfigured due to virus.
*virus incidence was low in harvests weeks (1-5) and (6-10); these data were not statistically different, therefore, they are only presented as observations.
NS indicates data were not statistically different.

1 Total of 15 harvests. Planting was July 28, 2016. Harvests 1-5 occurred on 31 August; 2, 5, 7 and 9 September. Harvests 6-10 occurred on 12, 14, 16, 19 and 21 September.
Harvests 11-15 occurred on 23, 26, 28 and 30 September; 3 October.
2 Average number of fruit harvested from each plant at each harvest period (i.e.: 1-5; 6-10; 11-15).
3 Marketable fruit are graded into U.S. No. 1 (requires younger and more tender squash than U.S. No. 2 which are permitted to be more mature and allows greater surface area to be affected by defects).
4 Culls consisted primarily of misshaped fruit.
5 Fruit were discolored or rough/disfigured due to virus.
*Virus incidence was low in harvests weeks (1-5) and (6-10); these data were not statistically different, therefore, they are only presented as observations.
NS indicates data were not statistically different.
