Thanks to all!!! Hoodat is it to forward if I ask where you live? I am up in Vista. gina

I needed to revive this post because I have more questions. I have many of these squash now almost at full maturity. They are turning a golden tan like my butternut. I guess my question is that for regular pumpkins you pick when the vines die? Should maybe I do the same for the Cushaw...

Oh yeah, I'll eat those apples!!!! :woot Sounds great. I have a friend who does Lemon Cello as well. yum!! :drool g

Are those peels on your apples??? What do you use them for after they are canned? Everything looks great!!! g

Free I was hoping you would stop by!! :frow g

I have to admit I have never tried to make sauerkraut in the way that you are doing it. But I thought I would share something with you. This is a great example of how I make sauerkraut. http://pocketsofthefuture.com/blog/?p=145 This was mine on day two. By day 3 it was bubbling and...

Wow, I never even thought of that. I will start saving them. I am very new to saving seeds. Can you give me any tips? Last year I saved the seeds from a store bought dumpling squash and planted them. It grew nicely. All I did was rinse and let them dry on a paper towel. Does that sound...

This is what I have planted. http://rareseeds.com/cart/products/Lebanese_White_Bush_Marrow_Squash-1148-16.html Thank you for the curing info. I think they will hold for quite a while. gina

Wifezilla, do you have a cucumber salsa recipe? g

Yes exactly. When you pick them young 6 to 7 inches they are very tender. The meat to seed ratio is good. I have a few that were missed and managed to get a bit big. They seem to be tougher(the skin) and more seedy. I am going to try and store them. I guess it doesn't hurt to try. g

Thank you both. Yes shredding is my next step. gina

Don't we all? ;)

Is it possible they just weren't ready to be picked? I love trying new things, I got my Lebanese squash from Baker Creek as well. But I hate when the veggie disappoints. g

I am being over run by Lebanese squash. I am trying to pick them while they are still small like they recommend but I keep finding them hidden everywhere. Some have reached the size of a spaghetti squash. Today I made the Lebanese squash cookie recipe and this afternoon I plan to make...

I have only made sauerkraut by the Nourishing Traditions recipe that calls for added whey. Mine bubbles in in the first 3 days. They say organic cabbage is better because the beneficial bacteria is still present. Perhaps you cabbage was to "clean". g

That makes sense. Thank you!!

Ok, so what do you recommend? Doctor, will it live??? :D

My tomatoes have been doing the same thing one by one. I have a few extra spot on the leaves. The weather here couldn't be better. I water regularly. Does anyone know how blight gets into the garden and how to get rid of it? Will it come back again next year? I did not have this problem...

Honestly I picked them young because I thought they needed to be tender. I have not eaten them yet. Maybe I will shred and donate these picked ones to my chickens. They are doing amazingly well. I also have the White Lebanese squash from Bakers Creek seeds. Looks like I need to figure out...

Oh, thanks guys. But I think I found it. Cushaw Squash. http://www.google.com/images?rlz=1T4GGLJ_enUS376US376&q=cushaw+squash&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=univ&ei=YpVZTLraH4H0swOd_djWCQ&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CDYQsAQwAw Seems to be a winter squash good for storage. I...
