Mysterious Squash Circles

(Before It's News)

Some folks have mysterious crop circles, I have mysterious squash circles.

I have no idea what caused these.

This is the orange cushaw winter squash I showed you the other day. I was digging sweet potatoes and realized it's stem was completely dried and shriveled. So I picked it. It's 15 inches long and weighs 9 pounds, 5.5 ounces.

As impressive as that is, this one is even more impressive.

Cushaw growing in the strawberry bed. Potato fork is for size comparison

This is my other cushaw, and it's 27 inches! I haven't weighed it yet, but will after I pick it. I'll leave it on the vine for as long as I can. It doesn't look like it's going to turn orange, but we'll cook it and eat it just the same.

I've had a number of baby cushaws start, but these are the only two that grew. At those sizes, however, I think I only need two!
