An empty window stops at day 28; it does not predict the plant’s fate afterward. Plant count is not produce yield. Source decisions and model limits.
Use the full growth wait at the boundary
Tromboncino Squash uses thirteen initial growth days and has no regrowth in this reference. Subtract thirteen from the final harvest day, 28, to get Fall 15 as its latest start for one in-window harvest. Fall 15 plus thirteen gives day 28. Moving the planting to Fall 16 moves that first date to day 29, beyond the selected window.
The two adjacent Squash inputs above make the boundary visible. The day-15 result contains one harvest; the day-16 result contains none within Fall. Both use twelve plants. Adding plants cannot move day 29 back into the window, and an outside-window result does not describe the plant’s later condition.
Look for a shorter first wait, then check harvest type
Sunflower provides a date-based alternative when the Squash window has closed. Its item record lists Summer and Fall, five growth days, no regrowth and Savanna as the seed region. A Fall 16 planting therefore gives one harvest on Fall 21. Its latest start for a first harvest is Fall 23, which reaches day 28.
That shorter wait answers whether a harvest fits; it does not make the two crops interchangeable for every purpose. First confirm which crop you actually need and which seeds you have. The planner compares calendars and cannot infer the requirements of your current task from the growth interval.
No regrowth means the Sunflower plan ends with its first harvest. It does not fill the remaining Fall days with automatic replacement plantings. If you intend to sow again after harvesting, choose that new start explicitly and calculate a separate plan.
- Find the crop’s latest start in the Fall table and compare it with your intended day.
- Open the plan for that exact day; keep an outside-window answer visible when comparing options.
- If a first harvest fits, check whether the record has regrowth before expecting any later rounds.
Why this reference uses thirteen days for Squash
The Plants summary contains a seven-day Squash entry. This site instead adopts thirteen from the specific Tromboncino Squash item’s growth field and growth-stage text, supported by the Summer and Fall tables. The discrepancy remains documented in the source reconciliation; it has not been explained away as an unverified fertilizer effect or version change.
The linked source revisions let you inspect that choice before relying on a tight final-day plan. Sunflower’s five-day value and lack of regrowth come from its checked item record. Calculated planting cutoffs follow from those selected inputs and the inclusive day-28 boundary under ordinary growth, daily watering and timely harvests.
