What is this? Is it a melon or a squash? I planted both and forgot where, lol!

What kind of each did you plant???? Duh Duh Duh

First glance it may be a melon..
*but I grow spaghetti squash, and those
look like that too* wink

I planted mixed melons, "exotic", vanilla ice, orange sorbet, green flesh honeydew and spanish moon.... I also planted yellow squash, zucchini squash, which are up and producing, and spaghetti squash, and also butternut squash....

Thank you for replying to my post smile

Well, it's either the one of the melons..
*I am not firmilar with them, other then varieties you'd see in a store, to be honest..

but it veryyyyy well could be the spaghetti one..

Any chance of a wee~bit clearer picture of the
actual fruit..
and then the way the vine is growing..
either long and trailing.. or maybe an upright,
just so we can see how the plant is growing..

It is trailing... the fruit (mystery fruit) is now the size of a football, little ones all over the place, pumpkin like leaf but smaller, it is very lightly striped, yellow - green, very light in color. I can try again today to get a better photo. It is very prolific, lol! The pictures of the melons on the seed packet are all round. I also planted some dipper gourds. I found photos online that have dipper gourds and melons the same color, lol!
