Title: Squash the size of footballs!
Post by: caroline7758 on August 02, 2009, 13:35:27
I have some squash grown from seed sent to me by manicscousers and thought to be either golden nugget or uchi kuri. Some of them have now grown to the size of footballs, so do you think they may have cross-pollinated, or do these varieties grow that big?
