I’ll be curious to see once you cut them up. Hopefully some will have green flesh. I cut open an obvious hybrid the other day, and while the flesh was mostly dark orange, the flesh around the seeds where light green - but the flavour was incredible! I’ve noticed the green and a good amount of their hybrids don’t have has long storage as the seminole, even if they have inherited the seminole shape. I would love to change this in future the generations

Not sure if anyone else has started their squash yet but here is mine so far. I’m in zone 9b Mesa, Arizona so I sowed the seed the first week of March and it took around a week to sprout. I initially tried sowing early mid February but my yard is very shady that time of year so the ground wasn’t warm enough yet. The plant is almost 2 months old and it’s growth has been amazing so far. It handled the early spring heat waves we’ve had here and I deeply water it about every 3 or 4 days but it seems it could probably go longer. The leaves are also the largest of all my squash even the ones started earlier.
