Maybe I messed up

I thought I had two yellow squashes growing in here. Instead, when I traced the great big one back to its vine, it looks like it came from the cucumber plant, and the little yellow one came from the squash plant! 

Can squash and cucumber cross? I didn’t even think about that when I planted these. This cucumber is huge! I guess we’ll find out when I cut into it and take a bite.

  1. It certainly looks like a squash rather than a cucumber, but you can get seeds that grow yellow cucumbers instead of green. Cucurbits, the family of cucumbers and squashes can cross-pollinate so that is a possibility? You might have just invented a very exotic squash-cucumber, a squmber! xxx
