I wanted to show Sebastian Jany what squash was made from his seeds. More precisely, this squash was already from the Jade Turtle squash in the previous photo post. And it grew last year. The funny thing is that it's quite light in color, like a green apple. At the same time, a dark green one grew from the same seeds of a member of our Club (photo in the previous post). It's amazing. Roulette with color and shape. I love giant pumpkins for this, for their unpredictability and magic :) Unfortunately, this squash has rotted, I made a fatal mistake, I spilled it well with water the day before, and at night there was a storm that no one predicted. A day later, I arrived at the botanical garden where this squash grew and saw these spots. It may, of course, start to rot earlier. But surprisingly, this process happened very quickly, I could not immediately remove the fetus and left it for another couple of days. And when I returned, he deflated like a balloon. It's a pity, but I still remember this wonderful squash.
