I’m growing bird houses and luffa! Get another pack of luffa seeds. Mine are 2 or 3 years old and almost every one has sprouted. This year I just stuck ‘em in the ground.
Be aware! Once they get rolling they can grow nearly 1’ a day!
Comment on i just think they're neat

At the art fair by my house is a lady who makes gourd earrings, birdhouses and instruments. She even wears a gourd hat. She grows them all herself. I tried to grow a luffa this year inspired by her. It failed because they are hard to germinate. Next year I’m doing a bottle gourd

Never wear a hat you haven’t grown yourself.

“As you can see, this hat is felted from my own body hair, and the decorative bits? My toenails.”

Real baller move. Time to get some sheep so I can make my own wool hats I guess. The gourd hat is more decorative than functional in the winter
