Let's Get Growing!

• Plant: Smooth Luffa (Luffa aegyptiaca)
• Type: Warm-season annual vine
• Sunlight: Full sun, 6–8+ hours daily
• Planting Depth: ½–1 inch
• Spacing: 18–24 inches apart, with room for vigorous vines
• Germination: Typically 7–14 days in warm soil; hard seed coats may delay sprouting
• Growing Season: Long and warm! Allow approximately 120–200 days for fully mature sponges, depending on conditions.
• Support: A sturdy trellis or fence is highly recommended. These vines don't understand personal space.
• Harvest: Allow fruits to fully mature and develop their fibrous interiors before processing them into sponges. 
• Difficulty Level: Beginner - but needs a lot of space
• Total: 15 seeds

Grow it. Harvest it. Peel it. Scrub with it.

Whether you're looking to reduce disposable sponge waste, make homemade gifts, or just grow something wonderfully weird, these seeds are ready for an adventure.

Small garden. Big personality. Seriously useful gourds.
