I got two butternut squashes each from two plants (Butternut
Sprinter)this year. Perthshire, Scotland. In the open. Quite large
ones too, though oval rather than the normal butternutty pear-shape. So
if next year is anything like this one you shouldn't have any trouble.

We haven't eaten them yet. We're still finishing off the green tomatoes
in curries. I plan to try acorn squashes next year as well.


How long do you expect them to keep?
