I love Mexican pepitas and use them in foods I cook but would like an easy way to hull the seeds. As for eating roasted pumpkin seeds with the hulls, that is for the birds and I'd not grow a squash for that reason.

I posted about the tromboncino on another forum and the response was that people had grown it to two plus feet. So I decided to get an accurate measurement of the one being grown out for seed. It is just under four feet. I decided to pick the smallest one so we can taste the more mature one and a very young one. Still not cookd either yet. The spaghetti squash are in Atlanta so I've not got a photo to share yet.
