From the moment they sprout, their vigorous vines produce a yield of medium-sized squashes with hard, tan skin is covered in rough wrinkles. The best thing about this type of squash is the fact they can used in a variety of ways like baking, roasting, boiling and stuffing served with other vegetables. This squash is good enough for storage for upto a month when stored in a cool and dry place. Cut pieces, however, must be consumed within 3-4 days.
