Default Questions about pumpkins

Wrong. They are delicious as a green squash when they are small and
green!



I'm growing green striped cushaws this year instead of summer squash.

They are just about to start blooming. I planted them *hoping* they
were good when picked small and tender, because we don't need all that
many pumpkins. I just wanted to plant something different.

They've just started to run. They look determined to take over the
whole garden plus my neighbor's back yard if they get thru the fence.
