Question about Seminole Pumpkin

10 years ago

Is it true the shell is so hard you have to split them open with an ax? If so, I need to just pulll mine up now! I don't even own an axe, and not sure I would want something that I would have to split with an ax. Sheesh. Waited years to grow them, then I read this.

Do you find other winter squash too hard? if so, yeah, eat them young as zucchini. Otherwise, no problem.

ETA Of course, they sell a lot of very different varieties as Seminole squash these days, so I guess it's possible that some might be super hard.
