"I didn't find these plants produced as many squash as I would have hoped. There were several squash that started out nice, but died on the vines before they matured.
The ones we did get had a nice flavor though. The seeds inside were a little big though.
This year, I am going to try a different kind of squash variety instead and see what happens."

"I planted 4 of these and they were all eaten by pests. One grew several fruits, and they too, were eaten by beetles. I will try them again this year, though."

"This is my first year with the Pic-N-Pic hybrid seed and I had anticpated the normal overtaking of the garden that comes with planting yellow squash. Instead I got a bit of confusion.
Limited myself to a test area for this new hybrid, I thinned out the seedlings to 3 in total so that I could watch and compare with my other yellow squash.
One out of the three was really quite a weak plant. Subsequent examination showed no pests, like the dreaded borer and no reason for the weakness. One had no growing tip after the first 2 blossoms but even more strange, produced a single male and a single female blossom creating one perfect squash. The third of these is growing normally and is on par with my other yellow squash type.
Since my test area for this squash was so small, I'm going to try it again next year but I can't give it a full 5 out of 5 with that result. I will say that the fruit of this squash is quite delicious with perfect form and flavor."
