796 is not 100% squash and was weighed as pumpkin in Duisburg a week earlier.

Here is a picture of the squash (top right). Is it as pumpkin or a squash?

It looks very much like a salmon coloured Pumpkin but with the aged netting that appears on a lot of Pumpkins. Difficult to tell from the Picture but one thing for sure it is not a True Green Squash by a long way.
