Default delicata storage

i normally place 6 or 7 butternut into a cardboard box from staples that held printer paper i got from work. i stand them up and don't let them touch each other for air circulation.

i have too few boxes left having used them for the butternuts and i have 19 delicata squash to store. i put 14 into 1 box. do they need to be less crowded? air circulation? i suspect they'll keep to the end of the year and i'd hate to lose them cuz i stored them incorrectly tho i suspect 14 in 1 box is fine.

how do you store your delicata squashes?

thanks,

tom
