Hello, someone here was sweet enough to send me some seeds of Serpente de Sicilia, before I even had looked into vegetable gourds. Im a bit new to vegetable gardening....

I am pleasantly supprized to hear theyre more easily climbing than zuchinni, and stay more firm when cooked. We had fairly rotten luck with most squash in Cincinnati, but we'll be in Nashville with lots of fresh vermicompost

Im basically just reading up, and planning to put a trellis up in one of my beds for them.... any do's or dont's before I grow these out?
