    Jam packed with such helpful info! I think each video of yours I hear about some new variety that I didn't remember from your previous video!

    I really enjoyed your presentation you have such a lovely voice and a sweet smile I always like seeing how others overcome challenges in their garden! But I also need to know how you can use the product you were trying to save you have covered all the bases for me. Thank you so very much for taking the time to do this😊

    It’s an Heirloom and that’s another bonus to Tromboncino Squash.

    I’m now growing it since July 2022...it’s a fun squash to watch it grow so fast with its strong stems. It climbed right out of my garden and over the fence! It’s monster squash! Love it! I think I’m done with traditional squash. I tried every trick I knew to ward off the vine borers on the other squash, way to much work!!

      It's so much work! The tromboncino is so rewarding and just as delicious! Thank you for watching!

    Subscribed! After seeing all your tips and suggestions, how could I not? I appreciate that you described what you do with the food after preserving it. I grew tromboncino for the first time and was amazed with it. The vine borer didn't bother it but the dang squash bugs did a little - that is saying a lot considering they wiped out my zucchini and yellow squash. I LOVE your idea to shred it as I never seem to get any zucchini and this will be welcome in my freezer. Great video, thanks!

      Thank you so much! The squash bugs are definitely persistent, but it does take longer to kill the tromboncino.

    My goodness , perfect timing finding your video on tromboncino squash. I’m really considering growing this variety. I’d almost totally given up growing squash hence because of vine borers/squash bugs. I’m curious, how many plants of trimboncino squash do you have?

      Thank you! I'm so glad you found it encouraging. I threw a small handful of seeds in the ground in April. If I'm counting there are about 4 plants there now. We did have a period where there were not any female flowers due to the heat, but they are recovering now. I spotted several female blossoms this morning. Thanks for watching 😊

    Are the leaves edible like they are from other squash plants?

    • @AgapeGardensSTL

      I have never eaten them, but I think they are! I'll have to try that!

      @@AgapeGardensSTL I love dual purpose plants. I know most of the other squash have a pretty firm leaf so I mix it with the greens from collard, kale, mustard, rutabaga, broccoli, brussel sprout, cauliflower. The softer ones I try to keep those together but away from the thicker ones so they don't just cook down and disappear like spinach, Swiss chard, turn up, beats, sweet potato, bean, cucumber, loofah etc..
