i rember when i got interested in squash and pumpkins in the 1998 area the word was to cross them to get thicker walls on the pumpkins,, everyone was doing it,,,you dont here much about it now days ,so what would you get if the female was squash and pollinator was a large pumpkin? could you get improvements or just lose the squash genetics what fruit is dominate ?
