Just brought these in. Trying to call ideal ripeness. Do they look about right? There are about 5-6 still out there. 1st harvest

    Oh nice!

    Due to the drought my plant only gave me one squash. Honestly not as sweet as I had hoped so maybe I took mine too soon aswell. Did make a very nice silky smooth soup though.

    Mine will age a month or so in the pantry now

    Yes they look good – good enough to eat! Word of warning though – they are not the best-storing squash in the world so keep an eye on them esp on the ends..

    Ohhhhhh these are my absolute favorite things to make pie with!! Roast them low and slow until they’re nicely caramelized and semi-dried out and then puree away!
