Product Description
Yes really! Now you can grow your own bathroom sponges! It's the fibrous internal structure of the gourd that converts into sponges after 12 inches long. They climb or spread just like cucumbers and need very similar growing treatment. When ripe, leave in a dry place, and the outer skin will come away revealing the loofah beneath. Wash them in mild disinfectant and place in a warm place to dry completely. Fruits in late summer. Climber. The Luffa Gourd can also be eaten. It is know in Asian Cuisine as "Cee Gwa." Harvest when 6" long for eating. Can be eaten like a cucumber, or chop and stir-fry with chicken, bamboo shoots, or cashews.
