1 dill’s Atlantic giant pumpkin = 0
1 all green bush courgette = 4
1 squash zucchini Wanda = 2

This may be the last of the squash & courgette. Both plants are looking very unhappy damping off / rotting.
Builder that would like to go play in the garden.

Would someone be kind enough to post a photo of the young and developing trombas on their plant?

I grew two plants from the same packet of seed I had last year. Last year was such a misery for growing and the plants were stunted and the fruits (all two) were small and shaped more like an aubergine. I thought this was because of the poor weather. This year the plants are huge and vigorous and making loads of fruits - all the same shape as last year. I'm worried they're actually not trombas and can't tell what they might be. I'll post photos when I can get to the computer.

Edited to add photos of the plant and a couple of the fruits (they've both got many fruits). The creamier green color is the more true to life.

Thanks, JJB. I think mine are almost certainly something else.I guess I should pull them out, since we have no idea what they are...they're such big happy plants, it's hard to countenance.
