An experiment. I planted a packet of acorn squash seeds this spring, only one older grew.  Three sages started on this plant, only one matured and it is big but not turning very green.  I also planted seeds I saved from a store bought acorn squash, they grew very well. There are about 25 acorn squash growing, and some are turning darker green even though they are very small. I am sad I planted them two weeks late so might not get to eat any but for next year they I at least know they will do well if I start them a few weeks early I am in the same boat with my butter cup squash. They are doing well, if only I started them early.

Zucchini bread I made from zucchini from my garden. Zucchini nut bread and double chocolate zucchini nut bread.
