You sure are a friendly guy. Thanks for sharing. I recently purchased one of these squashes and I'm excited about growing them by saving the seeds for next year

I'm from Louisiana and I recently bought a cushaw and cooked it with my mom especially since my grandmother cooked it in pies and casseroles. I'm saving the seeds and slices, but I'm trying to see when we should grow the cushaw in what month.

Nice ❤

Awesome 👍🏽😎😎 I'm planting some this year

Growing them this year in the desert. Thank you for sharing.

Just found your channel and hope you find inspiration to get it all started back up again.

Just found your channel. I'm retired and farm 5 acres. I've grown cushaw ( in Wisconsin ) for three years and love them. Looking forward to going thru your videos. I'm particularly interested in heirlooms. My friend brought me some fish pepper seeds from his family in North Carolina. I would appreciate any suggestions of seeds grown by African Americans.I love the way that growing food bonds us to each other. God Bless.

Brother, those flowers are edible and quite delicious. Put some bread crumbs batter with eggs and deep fried them or bake them. Trust me you will love them! I used to live over in Italy and they sell all kinds of pumpkin/squash flowers and they are AMAZING. Also cut them up and put them in a salad, or just cook them as they are on a pizza.

Thanks for sharing!!!

Please, if you have time and energy, would you share more Cucuzza recipes and maybe how to save Cucuzza squash seeds? Thank you.

Hope you are able to get back into it! It surely does tke a lot of energy. Take good care.

Thank you for giving hope for gulf coast gardens in mid summer!

Hope all is well with you. Thank you for sharing your gardening experience and recipes.

Beautiful!

I just harvested mine today. The leaves are huge!

I’m growing cushaw for the first time this year. I’d never heard of it before last year when I saw “Homestead Hart” talking about how delicious it is. I can’t wait to try it!

Beautiful presentation! If I had to pick only one tomato on this earth, it would be a Paul Robeson tomato. They are everything a tomato should be. My grandmother tried one from my garden last year and said “ohhhhh yeah, now that’s such a good tomato my mouth is watering as I eat it! Haven’t tasted a tomato like that in decades” It’s also one of my best producers and the taste takes you away✨ Great video I hope more people try this masterpiece tomato! Thanks so much!

My grandmother used to cook cushaw the same way as your wife’s side of the family. We’re from Pointe Coupee Parish. My father used to grow it behind our house. I’ve been searching for days to figure out what this vegetable was until today. I thought it was a French word because my grandmaw spoke creole and would mix in some creole words with English sometimes

Thank you for being so descriptive in this video. My farmer is selling the starts and I needed to find out how to grow them in a short time frame. You’ve told me so much already. Thank you!!!!!

oh no , lol , hope you get it cleaned up , a little at a time ,

Welcome to hell! 🤣

I came across your video looking for help with my cushaw plant. I'm a new gardener and was looking at the spots and hoping it wasn't powdery mildew. I'm from Louisiana as well but living up north and wanted a little piece of home.

You got this!

I’m glad I’m not the only lover of cushaw!!

Just dropped some seeds for mine. I can't wait til they get to this stage. Yours are so beautiful and lush 😍

Wow, I can remember when my brothers and sister and I had a Cushaw, plant grow, we won! My older brother a nd I. Those were some the best times of our life...

Researching as many cushaw videos as I can since I recently purchased some seed from the beautiful Mrs. H. I remember eating cushaw as a child and am looking forward to a blessed havest💕

Great explanation! Thank you!

I’m growing these needed to see how big they get. That meal sounded lovely. Great video

You’ll power through! Can’t wait to see the update 👍💪

I have neglected mine this last year too. Hey it happens life throws other things our way. Btw I can think of one positive thing to say. Look how much compost and biomass you will have. Much blessings :)

Nice I’m growing them this year

Lots of work needed and a huge overhaul but glad to see you back out there. Sometimes a break is needed and if you hadn't taken it then it might have been alot tougher to resist burnout. Going to be a fun grow year. Thanks for the share!

You just motivated me to stay on top of my weeding. I don’t ever want it to get out of hand. I look forward to the update!

You gonna get it done brother. One bed one step one day. It will come together! I missed out on the malertoins this year. Hoping to get them next year! Take care! Gro Dat!!

Can’t wait to see it when it’s done

Those bumblebees are pretty docile, until you accidentally grab one. 😱

I was raised on cushaw pie....grandma always made one with the pumpkin and the way she did they tasted very similar

Love it. Gonna try them in Ghanaian conditions

👍🏽💕

Just checking in on you! Everything in your garden looks so awesome! I'm going to harvest some of my Red Mustard Greens today. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏽🤗🌱💜

❤️

Where do you get your seeds

I am envious of your garden in Montana we only have a short growing season and even when we don’t expect that we gets hard frost

Beautiful tomatoes!

It’s just me now and too old to take care of a big garden so I plant my garden close to the house I planted a Purple Cherokee Heirloom Tomato oh my goodness it’s good if you haven’t tried it I sure recommend it

Hello from Montana love the vegetables but I zeroed in on your marbles I have a collection from my husband that he played with in the late 40’s

👋🏽Thanks for sharing stay safe 🙏🏽💜💪🏾
