C. Maxima turning Orange in Storage?!

16 years ago

Hello,

I planted Sweet Meat squash this year for the first time, and I just noticed that they are turning orange in storage. They are part of the Hubbard family and are supposed to stay slate grey and last for quite some time. I have stored onions and potatoes in the same room, but no apples (ethylene). I am curious as to why this is happening and are these still edible? If so do I need to cook them up quick and freeze it or something, or are they fine in storage. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
