Has anyone here ever grown pink banana squash? This was planted so innocently and has turned into a physco squash vine, taking over the entire end of the garden space. There are several fruits, 2 of them growing on the fence. They just keep getting bigger and bigger ... It looks like a giant pumpkin stretched out! How do I know when they are ready to harvest?
Netty they look beautiful and yummy! How to know when they are ready to harvest? Well this is what I always do for my bottle gourd and luffa. Watch them everyday and once the growth slow down it is ready. Good luck
I've grown them many times. I used them the same as pumpkins, although they have a milder flavor. I harvested when the shell was hard and the stem brown and dry and hard.
