I grew a nice 500 pounder off this seed. It was a beautiful deep green, 12% heavy, not bad for my first attempt. An interesting thing happened. I gave it to a local grocer for display and the longer it sat out, the color started to gradually change. By today when I harvested the seeds it was a brownish-green with some faint orange. It was solid and with no rotten areas.
Is it usual for squash to slowly change colors after harvest?

For some reason mine usually take on that brownish color too.
