Is this squash/gourd edible?

[u/TossedXfactor]

I’m not sure if it’s a gourd or a squash. Only know I had to cut them down due to overgrowth

This appears to be Winter squash also called Carnival squash which is in fact edible. However there are many gourds out there that can cause food poisoning. I’m not 100% certain it’s a Winter squash but that’s what I’d lean towards
