We think they'll ripen up just fine, but I guess they'll not be as rich as they could have been had they lasted in the garden a couple more weeks.Jodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05442310215979259623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-74402326005062826752012-09-10T19:19:43.069-04:002012-09-10T19:19:43.069-04:00Very nice harvest and really great job on butternu...Very nice harvest and really great job on butternuts!Jenny Rottingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09559432369642740389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-74084391383755454742012-09-10T17:49:32.682-04:002012-09-10T17:49:32.682-04:00Nice butternuts!

I planted another one the last week of July and it has set about 8 butternuts so far. We'll see if they ripen in time. Too bad about the Tetsukabotu squash not setting fruit. One of your earlier posts had convinced me to give them a try next year. Now I'm having second thoughts about them. gardenvariety-hoosierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02823437033502199023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-10718214757121107492012-09-10T16:25:11.386-04:002012-09-10T16:25:11.386-04:00Those butternut squash look fabulous!

On the other hand, what a joy those butternut squashes are, that would definitely be at least a year's supply for me.

I left them in because I really didn't have any thing else to go in that spot. Now all of the sudden they have recovered and have produced 3 fruits.

This year I have tromboncino, baby blue hubbard, buttercup and kabocha. The kabocha is in a new garden bed and not doing as well as the others. In the past I've gotten a lot of huge squash from one or two plants. So far this year there are only a few small ones. Of course we've 6 weeks or perhaps longer till frost, so we'll see how they go.Mary Hysonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05761108134258243637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-6377082151622543962012-09-10T10:14:18.653-04:002012-09-10T10:14:18.653-04:00That's a nice harvest of butternut squash.
