Title: Marrow storage?

I've got a glut of marrows... how long will they store and what should I do with them? Not really into making preserves or jams, would just like to keep them whole. ???

If the skin were hard,it can keep longer but if its nice & soft,in refrigerator can keep couple weeks!

I fyou can get them into a sunny greenhouse that can "cure" the skin and they will last longer... :)

I put mine on a shelf in the conseratory to help cure/ripen them. I reckon anywhere that is dry, well-ventilated and relatively warm is good enough.

Remember to turn them over to "cook" both sides... :)
