Green Lightning is an early, fast-producing bush squash with sweet, tender, striped fruits. One of the first squash varieties to harvest—especially when started indoors 3–4 weeks before transplanting—this compact plant produces prolifically. Best harvested at 1–3 inches and well suited for sautéing, roasting, or slicing into raw ribbons. Ready in 45–50 days.Category: Squash
