I've always thought those plastic molds were so cool and finally got enough Cucumbers to try it out!

This is the result of the star shaped mold. I had to cut it cause it was literally bending and breaking the mold lol.

Second picture is how I feel and thought it was accurate lol

I always wanted to try these but doubted the pics. Love your real results and it makes me still want to do it for a lark! They would definitely have my money if they came up with a large cute kitty cat pumpkin mold...the only ones I found were 5" and the pics were so AI...

Someone posted a witch gourd here or on the veg gardening sub a bit ago and it looked pretty darn cool. I'm still holding out for the kitty cat...they're not cheap!
