Odd colored zucchini

Question

I have a yellow zucchini plant and at least half of the squash are very orange in color and very hard in comparison to the yellow ones. They are also more triangular or conical in shape. Are these ones still ok to eat or should I just toss them.

Answer 1

Zucchini can be dark or light green. A related hybrid, the golden zucchini, is a deep yellow or orange color. Check the seeds that you planted.
