Harvesting loofah at the right time makes peeling them easy. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣After peeling, rinse the sponges well by spraying them off with a hose; allow the rinsed loofah to dry thoroughly in the sunlight.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Saving seeds is easy; when it is ready to harvest as a sponge, the seeds are usually ready, too. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Once the loofah dries, shake out the seeds inside the gourd, and if they are black, then save the seeds to share with others and plant the following year.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣

It’s time to start those loofah seeds 👩🏻‍🌾 They need 200 days to mature, especially if you have a shorter growing season. They should be started 8 weeks or so before your last frost. I have a few seed packets left on my shop, once they are gone they are gone until 2025! https://livingplanetfriendly.com/shop/ #Garden #Gardening #Loofah #Luffa #LoofahTok #LuffaTok #LoofahGourd #LuffaGourd #SeedStarting #Seeds | Living Planet Friendly
