If you want a c. moschata type ‘summer/zucchini’ squash try ‘tromboncino’(sp). You can eat those like summer squash or zucchini when they’re young and when allowed to mature they’ll keep long term (several months) just like regular winter squash.

My favorite squash! As winter squash they get sweeter the longer they're stored, too.

I ordered two envelopes of that seed and they came today - got them out of mailbox on way to dentist. I’m sending one of the envelopes to Johnny as soon as the pain in my jaw is low enough I can get out of the house again.
