FYI, although I pulled one plant a couple weeks back (bad spot, not enough space/air circulation, too much powdery mildew), the one that is growing up my garage wall onto the roof where it still gets a lot of sun is STILL setting fruit. Just for kicks I have 2 huge, old ones on there that I'm letting get to as close to mature as I can get them just to see how they taste as winter squash (I have low expectations and am just curious and like squash enough that even mediocre winter squash is quite edible to me) but I have two young ones I'm picking tomorrow and about three more buds that look like they're going to pollinate and set.
I cannot recommend the Franchi seed enough for this variety, especially to those of you who had complaints about production when you tried them.
