Well we have a couple... but no idea what to do with them...
Oh, I say, that's a long one!

Titter ye not!
Store it for a bit for the flavour to intensify, then eat like butternut. :wave:
It's in the garage, maturing as we speak!
Yes we have rather long ones too. They're gourds rather than squash aren't they? White flowers. I've seen them hardened off and painted to look like snakes - maybe scare the cats from my garden? Novel draft excluder perhaps?
We didn't like the taste of the small fruits so don't really want to eat the big ones either.
If they are the white flowered ones, then my advice above was wrong. I thought they were the yellow flowered type. Nothing will make these white flowered ones edible past the very young stage. Sorry if I gave you the wrong idea. Maybe they can be turned into an alphorn? :BangHead:
Definitely white flowered... but worth growing just for the S#D factor!
Suggest you grow Tromba d'Albenga instead next year.
Snake gourds are interesting, but not good to eat.
