Thanks
@sallyg. I didn't know that about the toxin. But I do know that squash needs distances of 800 feet to ½ mile between varieties to not cross. I never trade for squash seeds. There's always someone who doesn't understand plants crossing and thinks they can plant or share seeds from a Farmers' Market plant and still get the same fruit. The folks who do Farmers' Markets here grow a few varieties without distance - they have small farms.
