This is a great variety of luffa to grow if you want to harvest sponges. Luffa aka Loofah aka dish rag gourd, is a tropical plant and thrives during the hot and rainy summers of Florida and the Southern United States. It is sensitive to cold weather and frost can kill the entire vine. The vines are vigorous, grow quickly, and get very big. Some gardeners like to grow it up  a large tree for support. I grow mine on metal trellises because each luffa gets heavy. This is so much fun to grow. The bees and pollinators love the bright yellow flowers. I like to hand pollinate each flower to ensure they will produce a luffa gourd. It is easier to peel the luffa's to get the sponges inside just before it is completely dried out and brown, still at the end of the green stage. I recommend you watch some YouTube videos to see how it is done (video on my YouTube channel coming soon). This does require a long warm growing season to be able to harvest luffa gourds at the right stage for making into sponges, at least 90-120 days.

Ideal Growing Conditions

Sun: Full Sun

Water: Allow the soil to dry out a little bit in-between watering

Fertilizer: Not necessary, but is good to fertilize it every few months with some organic granular fertilizer, like Espoma Garden-Tone.

When & How To Sow Seeds: Soak seeds for 24 hours, and nick the seed shell with a nail clipper to let water in. They need warm soil (around 70°F). Direct sow when temps stay above 70°F or start indoors 4 weeks before your last spring frost date. If sowing indoors, use large containers (like solo cups) because they grow fast. A heat mat boosts germination. Place containers inside of another container with a lid to trap heat and humidity. Then uncover and move seedlings under grow lights once they sprout.

Germination: 14-21 days

Days To Maturity: 90-120 days

How & When To Harvest: Harvest when the outter skin has dried out and turned brown.

Common Diseases: Luffa can get some powdery mildew in very wet conditions. Improve airflow by growing it up a vertical trellis. Spray with 1 cup of hydrogen peroxide per gallon of water to clean and disinfect.

Common Pests: Luffa is susceptible to chewing insect damage by the same kinds of caterpillars/worms that chew squash. Spray with BT or spinosad if you notice chewed up leaves. 

Do I have a YouTube video tutorial on how to grow this? YES

I love this mixer
Size: Basic Frother, Color: Black
I love this mixer. I don't know how we got along before we had this. We have had this small hand mixer for 2 years, using it several times every day, day after day and it finally stopped working and I am ordering another one right now. I can't live without it. I make our bullet coffee with it. My wife makes her morning shake with it. I could go on and on but I need to get another one ordered right now.

Works perfectly!
Size: Basic Frother, Color: Silver
The first unit I got, the charging LED was not working so I don't know if the unit is charged. I returned the unit back to Amazon and got a brand new unit the next day. Great job, Amazon! The 2nd unit has been perform perfectly. I use it to whisk eggs in the morning to make French toasts, waffles, pancakes. All comes out perfect! Also, the mike froth for my morning latte and cappuccino. Don't under estimate this small unit, the spin is fast for high!!! I saw some negative review on the durability of the unit. I hope this is not the case. I'll update if anything changes. As for now, highly recommended!!!
