Squash seeds for this variety produce a vegetable that is probably the closest variety of gourd to the original Indian variety. Known as the snake this dudhi should be sown and allowed to grow in a similar way to a courgette so plenty of organic matter and it likes a bit of water. The plant will want to climb so stake it as you would beans. Once formed, pick the fruits whilst the skin is still soft and around a foot long.
