I put out regular old waltham's butternut when I pulled the peas. I ran okra starts on one side of the double row and butternut starts on the other. I'm going to try to train these out in an orderly fashion, this year. Think I'll use sod staples to lock down the main vines at right angle to the row. Yep, that's the plan. I'm sure they'll stay civilized in their growth.

I like eating butternut around February when it starts to take on that beautiful nutty flavor.
