This is my first time growing luffa, and it�s been a pleasant experience. The vines are growing well, and the flowers are lovely. Looking forward to harvesting the gourds.
Seeds arrived fresh and germinated without issues. The plants look strong and vibrant. I�d recommend them to anyone wanting a natural sponge crop.
These plants grow fast and need a trellis or plenty of room. I managed to accommodate them, and they�re already producing flowers and tiny gourds.
The luffa vines are spreading nicely, and the garden looks fuller every week. I can�t wait to harvest my own natural sponges in a few months.
Out of ten seeds, nine sprouted! The plants are thriving and seem resistant to pests so far. Very satisfied with this purchase.
