Default SDtarting Tiny Tim Tomatoes & Squash question?

By days end I'll have the Tiny Tim seeds started I'll plant a couple now and in 3 weeks 2 more so once I harvest the fist batch the second will be ready just when the 1st ones are done producing. This year because I grow bag garden I'm thinking of starting some bush variety Table King acorn Squash in the next week I'm in zone 5 so will a early start help me avoid squash bugs. Or should I start them by direst sow in the first week of June??? I'm just not sure what would be best early seed or late... Opinions please.

Good Morning

If I was you; I would never do direct sow with Squash Seeds. If you plant a Hot Pepper plant with you Squash Plants will keep those Bugs at Bay.

That's a secret but this is Easter. I will share on this Day in Honor of Dr. Carulyn.
