My winter squash took over my garden just like the watermelon and canteloupe did! Next year I will give all 3 way more space lol but it doesnt seem to bother anyone I just have to go out and make sure no one is choking anyone else out with their tendrils, which is a job, but everything is still growing nicely

I cannot say how helpful the guide to unusual veggies are- and the recipes or ideas to prep-- more more!

@TheHemlock77 12 лет назад

I tried the buttercup squash for the first time with our thanksgiving meal. Mainly because the local farm was sold out of butternut squash. I am hooked now, that is one delicious fruit.

@cookinginhd 13 лет назад

ProduceGuy, you've probably forgotten more about squash than I'll ever know about it. Very informative video.

@darfirst 13 лет назад

Great vid. I cant wait to see your upcoming videos on different ways of cooking them. I have always just did the butter and brown sugar thing other then that I'm clueless. I do have to admit that I didn't even realize you could eat some of those, I thought they were more for decorations.

@centsiblecooking 13 лет назад

That was really interesting and helpful. I see those squashes in the market and just had no idea what they were or what to do with them. I was going to ask you to possibly show some ways to cut/cook them, and then you said at the end you were going to do that, so I was very glad to hear that! Thank you!

10 years later and still relevant. Good info!

@kj3416 13 лет назад

Interesting!!!! I used to work in the produce dept., too (and I loved it!), and I knew NOTHING about those squash we sold. I enjoyed this video SOO much!

@PhyllisPascazio 12 лет назад

With the help of your video, I cooked my first carnival squash last night. I'd always been taught that winter squashes were for decoration only. How sad to know that I've been tossing out such wonderful food! Thank you so much for this informative video!

@jpsacrelige317 13 лет назад

Can't wait for those future videos! Getting ready to cook one of those Buttercups for Christmas Eve. I even wrote a song about my Buttercup, or "Christmas Pumpkin!"

@GarrettFruge 12 лет назад

Great video! Delicata and Butternut are my two favorite squashes!

@cabernetqueen 13 лет назад

we never ate these growing up in Virginia...so I have just begun to embrace them! via the local "global" market because calabaza(?) are used often in south of the border cooking. so I am ready for more!

@bigcrowfly 13 лет назад

The best place to purchase these is Trader Joes because they sell them by the each rather than the pound. You can pick up a 4-8 pound one in TJs for what a 1 pound one (if they exist) in a regular grocery store. Note, if you watch a UK video, they use the term Pumpkin instead of Squash to refer to all of the items on your table.

@mschdk 13 лет назад

Your videos are fantastic! Love the concept... I grew pumpkin and one squash variety last year and I'll definitely grow a few more next season. Thanks for a great introduction to the options! (But actually I've already bought seeds; butternut and spaghetti) Looking forward to the recipes coming!

@GospelTruth37059 13 лет назад

Wow I learned alot! I used to work in a grocery store and never saw half those squashes wow!!

@L1V2P9 Год назад

I've been eating (and enjoying) the skin of baked butternut squash since I was a child. I was surprised you stated that only the skin of delicata squash was edible.

@johnatncsu 13 лет назад

Well done. Thank you. Look forward to your videos of cooking squash.

@angelovestea 13 лет назад

YOu give some GREAT info. Thanx so much!!!!!

@YourProduceGuy 11 лет назад

It's snowing here today. That makes it a perfect day to enjoy a roasted or baked winter squash. First, having the oven on gives the furnace a break. Second, the cooking makes for a wonderful...comfortable sort of smell in the entire house. Which one of these will you be cooking?

I just made a video about my Honeyboat Delicata Squash but after watching your video I'm not to sure what I have. This is the first year I grew Aladdin, Birdhouse and Honeyboat and it went pretty well but I'm not to sure I picked them when they were done. I guess by your other answers I should wait till the plant dies. So could you look at my video and tell me what kind of squash it is? I thought I only had Honeyboat seeds. Thxs for the video!

@GuriyasKhana 13 лет назад

beautiful squash thank you brother

@Sephiroth1204 13 лет назад

That Turnip Squash was pretty cool.

@rubbernecker13 13 лет назад

Great info, I've only tasted butternut, acorn, spaghetti, and pumpkin. I could only find a minimum wage summer job this year and it killed my garden. My mouth's watering, next summer I'm going to make sure I have food all winter and sell extra produce for cash. Your squashes are making me kick myself, work is for suckers and people who don't know how to garden. Do you save your seeds? Looking forward to more awesome videos from you, good work.

@damienrad 12 лет назад

you are incredible! I love all your videos! thank you thank you thank you!!!!

@Sasywhatsbiz 12 лет назад

In South Africa we had a small green squash called a Gem Squash. I was wondering if they are found in the eastern USA. They are a family favorite so we would love to be able to find them. Love your videos! I come to them all the time when I am looking for answers.

@fabforceone 13 лет назад

I got a squash given to me this summer that weighed about 15lbs and it tasted awfull. I don't know what type of squash it was but it was pumpkin size and shape but completly green. I was told that it was ripe and ready but I'm now thinking it should of been stored for a few weeks before i tried to eat it. I baked it on the BBQ with butter and sugar and a bit of other spices but it was simply awfull. I'll stick with what I know I like...acorn,spagetti,butternut and pumpkin. Thanks for the info

@devyangel77 13 лет назад

in my country we only grow butternut squash we call it "american squash" great for stews and soups

@frnknsns 13 лет назад

very cool...thank you...glad I subscribed !!

@swpier29 13 лет назад

Great vids, very informative. If I were to buy a large hubbard squash and cut it into chunks to be frozen, would it keep well? Since it has a sweet taste I think it would be good as a ravioli filling...

@abigailmaturana741 4 года назад

amazing thank you so much! also i like your dad joke at the end 💖

@GriffinElliot 13 лет назад

good vid. good squash

@emmysnowwhite3775 10 лет назад

Thank you so much i really enjoyed your video.

@cityofdestiny9039 10 лет назад

Great video! I am trying to find out how to easily cut some of the larger squash. I will peek through your videos to see if I can find this, as my wrist won't last much longer (in terms of cutting winter squash) at the rate I am going. :)

@Petrajac88 13 лет назад

Hey I am cooking squash as I type this :) thanks for sharing...

How do I know when my spaghetti squash is ripe? Do you wait til the vine dies and pulls away or do you pick it sooner?

@Sephiroth1204 13 лет назад

@YourProduceGuy Oops, totally misheard it when I was watching the video. I'd definitely like to make it into a bowl, though. It does seem perfect for that.

@kokonutbaby1 12 лет назад

Well we have had a lot of heat so it looks like the 2 spaghetti squashes I have are starting to ripen prematurely as they are getting a deeper yellow color. The vine is starting to turn yellow and die (perhaps because of the heat altho I water nearly ev day). I really do not want to store them long term, just eat them when ripe, but I'm not sure when to pick them as they are my first time growing them. What should I do?

@brandonknill 12 лет назад

Great Video, but if I'm correct Butternut Squash skin is also edible?

@bluepumpkinseedco.9051 4 года назад

Great video, but at 6:45, it's not a sweet meat squash, but a Queensland Blue squash.

@bigswampbear23 3 года назад

Can the sweet meat squash can it be left outside and froze and then bring it in the house to defrost it to cook it up? My wife said it was not edible.

@dianasmithhill4678 9 лет назад

Do you know how to freeze squash? Like acorn squash? Could you do a video on it?

@khricket 8 лет назад

I steam mine, puree it and store it in freezer bags in 2 cup portions for baking.

@JenniferChurchman 4 года назад

But how do you know when to eat if you didn't grow them?

@annaburke8537 6 лет назад

Okay I'm trying to figure out when to plant winter squash, I would like to plant acorn squash and pumpkin, does winter squash grow in summer?? I'm confused!

@janpenland3686 6 лет назад

anna burke They are called winter squash because they store well for winter without any further processing. You grow them in the summer and it depends on what zone you are in and the length of time it takes for them to reach maturity. Acorn squash has a shorter growing time to reach maturity than pumpkin and different varieties of pumpkin have different lengths of time to maturity. I hope this helps and doesn't confuse you more.

@annaburke8537 6 лет назад

jan Penland Thank you, I planted pumpkins in late June, I think, and they are doing well =)

@janpenland3686 6 лет назад

You're Welcome.

@adrianbrown7586 3 года назад

You can eat the skin of kombucha and carnival squash

@MariA-nw5qx 4 года назад

Classification of squashes is a nightmare...some say "sweet meat" is the same as "crown prince", while others disagree. By the way, "kabocha" and "buttercup" are different varieties, the easy way to tell is the shape of their "bottom". Also, buttercup squashes have a boxy shape. I won't be growing spaghetti squash again as it was totally devoid of taste.

There are actually hundreds if not thousands of varieties of squash. Some have hollow stems, some have solid. If one is into "diversity".. squash is where it's at.

@cnyangler1770 8 лет назад

That Hubbard squash was underripe

@cnyangler1770 8 лет назад

If it were ripe, it would be fatter, larger (between 20 and 30 pounds) and would be more of a light blue color rather than blue-green

@cnyangler1770 8 лет назад

Also, "kabocha" squash was actually a burgess buttercup

@cnyangler1770 8 лет назад

And finally, what he called a banana squash is actually a very small example of a PINK banana squash, this type of squash normally would be huge (around 50 pounds)
