That's one veg I have never grown Spec! Sick What can you liken the taste to and are they easy to grow? Huh Looking for summat a bit different in the cucurbit family and may give them a try. Smile
Vinny, they like the heat, last year summer was to cold here for them, but still worth growing and they grow best up a net or trellis so don't take a lot of room, also they self seal when cut and store well also
Easy to grow as well, Veggie grows them and as she said kind of butternut taste
