Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for Hubbard squash (good quality). Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Do not store Hubbard and other dark-green squashes near apples, whose ethylene can turn the skin orange-yellow. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
