They are not squashes, but heirloom pumpkins. I tried growing a few vines last year, but did not have very good luck with them as the bugs had their way with them and I do everything organic, so no bug spray.
The white one is Lumina and the other two are Cinderella pumpkins. |

I've had a lot of appendages this year. Maybe it was the weather.
Although not exactly on topic, here is a quintuple-fused fruit I picked this week: |

it is an F4 that i have been working on for a couple years. It is already looking pretty stable this year surprisingly. I will still grow it for at least 2 or more rounds just to make sure before i release it into the wild.
