I grew zucca gourds and long gourds right next to each other, I ended up with a pretty good size zucca gourd. It was open pollinated, does anybody know if the zucca gourds and long gourds can cross pollinate?

Thank you.

Linden, Mi.,

If they did, you will not see it tell you plant next year.
I really don't think so (cross pollinat)

Yes, The LG and Zucca gourd flowers looked very similar, they open in the evening then close up the next morning.

Linden, Mi.,

I am very sorry, there I go again reading to fast, I thought I saw zuccini.

But still you will not see the cross tell next year.
Please let us know, what comes about.
