Cucuzzi Caravazzi

Starlight · March 16, 2015

Anybody happen to have any experience with this squash? I'm getting ready to sow these seeds. I am reading the package and it says that it is an edible gourd. The seeds look like gourd seeds. Are they really going to make an edible squash?

The package says the flesh of young fruit is thick, tender and exceptional flavor. What the package doesn't say is when you pick them. What is young and if you don't pick them in time, do they then turn into a hard gourd that can be used for decorations?

And does anybody know, do these type squashes get powdery mildew as easily as the regular small summer yellow squashes?
