So just for fun I crossed a few of my volunteer ornamental squash with some of my other squash, I crossed a patty pan, a scallop (At least that's what I think it is.) and a crooked neck winged squash (I'm not quite sure what it is) with crooked neck, this ought to be interesting, I also crossed the winged squash with a zucchini, they all seem to have taken.

That's nice that you can go looking for berries.

Nice, congrats!
Mine had a few little bulbs but I don't they are are going to grow since we don't have a male blossom.

Thanks! Aww

Heres what the winged squash looks like.

It has about 20 fruits on it and is still producing female flowers like crazy!

That's very cool Dan.
You will have to keep me updated on how they do.

Thanks! Those aren't the ones I pollinated, those are OP and could be any number of things, crossed back to itself, crossed to mini pumpkin, crossed to either of my 2 types of zucchini, or crossed with spaghetti squash or patty pan or scallop and least but not least they could be crossed straight neck or crook neck squash. The fruits I pollinated are only a few days old.
