Yeah, that T juice can act like glue sometimes! If you can get it before it dries, dish soap will help. After it dries you just about need a sander.

The good thing about it, though, is if you’re only using part of a squash, you can smear that juice over the cut end and it will seal it enough to keep a few more days.

Thank you, thank you, Ellendra! You have confirmed that I am NOT losing my mind and imagining things! The juice is terrible once it starts drying and when you’re cutting up 7 Ts at one time, the juice has time to dry. I have scrubbed my hands hard, with dish detergent and hot water & the scrubbie side of a dish sponge .... and still, when the hands dry, I have some film on them. The peeler is a real problem to deal with & on a granite countertop - awful. Anyway, now that I know I’m not the only one to experience the adheres-like-glue properties of T juice, I can say that I’ve really enjoyed growing them this year and will definitely have them in the garden next year!
