Planting and Growing Instructions:
Luffa gourds thrive in full sun and require a long growing season with warm temperatures, making them ideal for gardeners in warmer climates or those with an extended summer. Start seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost date in cooler regions to get a head start, or sow directly outdoors in well-drained, fertile soil once the danger of frost has passed and the soil temperature reaches at least 65°F (18°C).
• Planting Depth: 1 inch
• Plant Spacing: 12–24 inches apart, with 5–6 feet between rows for sprawling vines or trellises for vertical growth.
• Days to Germination: 7–14 days in warm soil. Soaking seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting can improve germination.
• Days to Maturity: 90–120 days for fully mature gourds ready to dry and process into sponges. Young gourds can be harvested earlier for culinary use.
Luffa gourds grow vigorously and benefit from a sturdy trellis or support structure to encourage vertical growth, reduce pests, and improve airflow. Water deeply and consistently, and provide regular feeding with a balanced fertilizer for optimal growth.
Whether you’re crafting eco-friendly sponges, growing edible fruits, or simply enjoying their striking vining habit, Luffa gourds are a rewarding and productive plant for your garden.
