When to plant Squash Outdoors (Night time temps)

14 years ago

I picked up some seeds from the Dollar store, the label said Table Queen Squash. I sowed 6 seeds and all of them have emerged. Was wondering when it would be safe to plant them outdoors. Day temps lately have been around mid 60's Night time temps are the Mid 40's. Thank You.

high 50's to low 60's, unless you cover them at night.
