    Same problem I have dell’s Atlantic giant pumpkin and it crossed with my butter cup squash making several 20 pound buttercup squash that were much bigger and pale green the flesh look the same as a regular buttercup squash and it tasted flat so I did not eat. One time in the 1990s I planted a yellow pear shaped gourd with warts with a field pumpkin they cross pollinated and created 25 field pumpkins with warts all over them.

      Very cool. Hybrid squashes are interesting.

      You mean kabocha. Kombucha is fermented tea.

    This is false the hybrid is more sweeter so you mean if you buy seeds and F1 or F2 have 3 hybrids and throw them away no it means it's pest resistant mildew resistant more sweeter false information

      Can you please lead me to sources that state that hybrid squashes are pest and mildew resistant, and sweeter? .

      @@adampetherick6266 the foods you speak of (strawberries, peppers, cabbage), sprayed or not, dont have high levels of Cucurbitacins . That chemical can be high in hybrid squashes and can make you sick. If the squash tastes bitter, it probably has a high level of Cucurbitacins.
