AboutMike Mascio Expertise I have been an avid gardener since 1985 and an AllExpert volunteer since
1998. I specialize in soil preparation, seed starting and plant
propagation, flowers, vegetables, and general landscaping. I am a strong
advocate of the square foot method of gardening and the use of organic
controls for pests and diseases.
Question because of the early frost and freeze some of our squash is still has green veins on the skin. will these squash continue to mature after picking?
Answer Squash will continue to ripen after removing them from the vine, although the process will be slower than if left on. Just store them in a cool, dark place such as a basement or garage.
Good luck, and please write again if I can ever provide assistance.
