Hello Veg 4681. I'm not eating butternut squash yet, but the squash are there and ripening to that tan colour. We are into September so it does seem late for you to get fruits ripened if you haven't got flowers yet. But maybe summer will go on into November and you will be lucky. When did you start your squash ? They want a long growing season and I aim to have them as big as I can in the greenhouse ready to go out when frost is past. If you started them late maybe you could start earlier next year. But good luck for this year.
