Don't know Jack about Gourds...

Hi all! I don't know a thing about gourds, but by divine intervention, I find myself with a massive vine (maybe vines) this year. My youngest brought home a gourd last year that looked like a miniature pumpkin from school. When it started to rot, he threw it in the compost. Now it's running rampant through the veggie garden.

My question is: is this an edible squash-type or just an ornamental for autumn decor? Can I cook these little babies up or just put them in baskets around the straw bales & Mums?

Thanks in advance!

Wendy
