What is this?

[Ironman1079]

I am guessing a pumpkin, but someone told me it is too bright of a yellow to be one......it was golf ball size 2 weeks ago, now soccer ball size.

On a vine 15-20 feet long, leaves are about 10" in size.

Fruit is bright yellow, pretty smooth.....any ideas?

It sounds like its got the coloring of some kind of gourd and the rest of a pumpkin.

Hi Ironman,

Photos of the leaves and fruit would help.

I don't know how to tell you to post a pic on the site, but you could use one of the free sites like photobucket.com and link your album to here by a copy and paste method.

I almost picked one of these yellow. But I got busy, and meanwhile it turned orange and into a pumpkin. Go figure.
