It looks pumpkin and tastes like a squash - Pumpkin Rumbo Hybrid

I'm always looking for something new and different when I'm ordering seeds. This year I came across Pumpkin Rumbo Hybrid. It looks a pumpkin but inside it's a sweet tasting squash. From 3 plants we ended up with 5 pumpkins and about 100ft of vine. This thing went all over the place. It grows roots as it goes so even though it's still growing all of the vine that is actually inside the garden has died. The real problem we have each pumpkin's size. Each one is about 15-20 pounds. For two people they're huge. So far we have cooked one and it made about 2 gallons of great soup. They seem to be keeping really well so as winter soup season gets here they should be perfect.

Giant Pumpkin sort of...

Normal pumpkins are so pedestrian. This year I ordered giant pumpkin seeds. Ideally it was supposed to get to 150 pounds. I would put mine at about 65 pounds. That was still much bigger than average. It was definitely worth $2 for the seed and I still have a few for next year. I think that my garden's less that ideal hours of sun really held it back but maybe with some more fertilizer I can at least get to a hundred pounds...
