Last years what?

Is it a crookneck squash Mine didn't take last year, going to try again!

That's better.

I grew 40, weighing 29.5Kg and have just finished them

Nice pics Liverpool! Reminds me to eat the rest of our butternuts. I think the pic is a crookneck though......... :-\

They were from seeds saved year after year, some type of crook neck squash originally.
We especially like slabs broiled with mixture of sour cream and grated hot pepper cheese on top.
Hope yours make it this year.  I've always seeded directly into the garden but might try sowing indoors this time.
Except...where to put them?  I'm overrun with tomatoes with buds! should have listened to TeeGee :'(

Sounds wonderful! I will have to try again now!

just popped seed in, first time growing them so I'll see if this year is better than last for squash  ;D
