wild butternut squash?
Growing out of my compost pile is what looks
like a butternut squash vine (growing over the chainlink fence the compost pile is next to). The squashes are the color and shape of a butternut squash, but most are larger than I see in the grocery store. One I just picked is about 15" long, but one other still on the vine is oval shaped. Most are the long type. I haven't had any butternut squash in years so it can't be from seeds I threw in the compost. I suppose I can just eat a bit to see if it's edible but thought I'd ask here in case I might be poisoning myself! :) And isn't this the wrong season for butternut squash? Thanks for any help.
