Had our first sweet potato squash today.Roasted skin on in olive oil,it was lovely.
The OH preferred it to butternut the only squash we usually grow.Anybody else tried it ?

Macmac, is yours the white skinned variety from Real Seeds? (I've been eyeing that one up, but I'm trying to resist until they have Oca in stock & I can do a 'big' order. ;) )

Hi Sholls my friend gave me the plant but yes she got the seed from real seeds.There are several squashes on the one plant they are all a good size and after todays lovely lunch we'll grow it again :)

Thanks for the info Macmac! My finger is hovering over the 'order' button, but I shall resist... for now. ;)
