yellowish green bumpy squash that makes me think it is crossed with a golden scallop squash going by shape. i picked a small one, and ate it right there. it tasted fine.
i may save seeds from the last type just to see what else develops it looks like it may be
fairly productive. of course further cross pollination may occur. i may have to think this one out a bit before proceeding

Save the seed. Later you can think it out.
