Green ones will become more yellow during maturation and the lighter ones will mature to a dark cream colour. Yields per plant can easily be 6 fruits or more. Spaghetti Squash belongs to the C Pepo Species To Cook : Merely cut the fruit in half (from stem side to flower side), place cut sideâ??s down on a lightly greased baking tray and bake in the oven for about 45 mins to an hour at 180 degrees Celsius. When the skin start to turn brown and almost looks like itâ??s boiling you know its cooked. A few black burnt spots wont hurt anyone either.
