Green Griller Squash is a hybrid zucchini variety that produces dark-green, egg-shaped fruits that are perfect for slicing and grilling. In addition to the beautiful coloration, this zucchini squash variety has a delicious, nutty flavor and a texture that holds well after cooking. These will produce heavily within an 8-week window once plants start producing flowers.
Green Griller Squash produces plants with an open-bush growing habit, which makes for easy harvesting. The plants also have very few spines, which keeps the fruits blemish-free during the harvesting process. Slice these in half, add olive oil and seasonings, and throw on the grill for an excellent summer treat!
Green Griller Squash may be direct-seeded or transplanted, although we highly recommend direct seeding. To ensure a good stand, we recommend planting Seeds every 12" along the intended row. Once plants emerge, thin plants to one every 2 feet. Winter Squash can be susceptible to plant diseases like downy mildew and powdery mildew if leaves receive excess moisture. As a result, we recommend using drip irrigation on winter squash to reduce plant moisture and feed plants more effectively. During periods of heavy rainfall, using a fungicide like Liquid Copper can help to alleviate disease pressure as well.

It’s hard for me now to want to grow any other kind of squash. I reside in zone 10A Florida and this green griller squash has been my best squash to grow to date. Taste and texture is great, plus it’s just a good looking squash. It’s also a fast producer which I really appreciate. Thank you Hoss for providing this great variety!
Very fast shipping and extremely fast germination!! So far very impressed! Now to wait for the plant to fruit!! Will definitely reorder seeds!!
The seeds germinated very good. I think every seed I planted came up in a few days and are growing like crazy.
We LOVE these! A few years ago we found a plant at a garden center. We loved the little or large footballs it produced! We grilled, cut up and our favorite was to slice and make pizzas! We were not able to find the plant years after. We searched and are overjoyed when we found Hoss! And they had these little gems in seed. The plant grows large so make room. It produces alot. Stores great! I wrap mine in a plastic bag with one paper towel and place in my veggies drawer in refrigerator. They lasted weeks! We try to use as soon as we pick. But if you get a lot, they keep well. We then shredded and froze towards the end of the season thank you Hoss for providing these seeds!!
I planted 8 Griller seeds—all sprouted and are ready to transplant. We're ready for zucchini’s!
