What are the pros? High producing squash
What are the cons? None
Grew this variety season of 2017. Direct sowed first week of may. Vines were very vigorous and take up a bit of room. Extremely productive. Harvested end of september and one packet of seed produced over 700 pounds of squash. Smallest 14 pounds, largest over 30. Now middle of february 2018 and have over 20 squash in storage. Excellent keeping variety. Very sweet flavor and texture. Not stringy at all like some varieties i have eaten.

What are the pros? This squash grows well.
We just cooked and ate a Hopi grey from last year! It has been sitting in a crate in the garage for 14-15 months, and it was as good as if it were just harvested. Dense orange flesh, very good squash taste, beautiful squash to grow! If you are in to long term storage, this is the best.

What are the pros? Rare historical variety
What are the cons? vine borer susceptibility high
This squash is very susceptible to vine borers. For that reason it is nearly impossible in our area to raise it to maturity. I've grown it twice and each time had problems with the borers. I will try again though. I would not recommend it if vine borers are a problem in your area.

What are the pros? Looooooooooooong storer!
What are the cons? n/a
I grew this variety a couple years ago. Our northern Michigan climate was just barely able to get a mature squash, but did nonetheless. I loved the flavor of these HUGE squash. What I found even better was the way they lasted in storage.....holy cow! I kept one of them for over a year by simply sitting it on a corner table in our kitchen! I likened the flavor to a Butternut, which is my favorite eating winter squash. My wife liked them as much as I did, and that was another big plus.

What are the pros? Sweet
What are the cons? few and far between
I am a winter squash fanatic! I try new varieties every year. This is by far the best winter squash we have ever tried. No exaggerating that it tastes more like a dessert. No need to put anything on it. Everyone that tried it, loved it. It's description on this site is highly underrated! This is a keeper.
