I think that Summer Ball is bred by Tozer.

Interesting that it can be sown to end of July, looks like a good thing to follow potatoes.  

Look how many seeds you get when you get them straight from the breeder.  Though you don't get a pretty packet.

Did it taste good Squash64 ?

Duke

NO!!!
Well, it wasn't that it didn't taste good, it just didn't taste of anything.  My husband said the nicest thing about it was the olive oil I drizzled over it. 
It was quite watery and I prefer a denser dryer squash.

What a lot of trouble I've put everyone to for nothing! :(

Hi, I wouldn't give up on it straight away, it may well be one that serves better as a winter squash, once cured and kept ,minimum 2-3 weeks but more is better, the starch will turn to sugar and it may well be better, don't know of course but if you get chance to get another one it might be worth a shot.I always thought the mixed commens on Bon Bon were because they could have been  tasted too soon.
I will trial l it next year as I have no personal experience with this one and am curious.
