AnnualGrow your own loofah sponge! These gourds produce abundant yields, perfect for natural soap crafts. When fully mature, the interior dries to reveal a sponge-like texture just beneath the husk. Curing takes about 3–6 months in a dry, well-ventilated area. In their early stages—while still green and under 4.5 inches long—they're also edible. Homegrown, all-natural, and better than anything you'll find at the store!
I grew these last yeah and had a fun time with the experience,I actually even got a finished Luffa out of it. Very happy with this product
I bought two packets of Luffa seeds because I wasn't sure how many would germinate. In two packets, I received over 40 seeds and all but two germinated and are thriving!
My luffa's are doing amazingly so far. I didn't do a soak or trim the seeds at all and I believe that 3 out of the 6 seeds I planted have sprouted with beautiful large cotyledons and I don't doubt that the rest will sprout! I have kept them outside in seed starting trays the entire time and they are doing wonderfully! I did plant them quite late considering i'm in Minnesota so I don't have too much hope of actually harvesting a lot of the dried luffa this season haha
so excited to get them. I had good luck last year with them.
Only got 8 seeds from the approximated 20 in the packet. Only 4 germinated.

Great fertilizer. Used for the first time last year for my fall bulbs and they were stunning and strong come spring. Planting another 250 bulbs this fall so came back for more bulb fertilizer. I also use the Trifecta. Can’t go wrong with any of Luke’s amendments.
Great germination and very prolific.
I grew this in a straw bale garden in 2025 and really enjoyed it. It grew amazingly well and was beautiful, so I purchased more for 2026. Michigan zone 6b.
I have grown these for the last few years and they are hands down my favorite. I like romas and firm tomatoes. These remind me of mini romas. These are less prone to splitting, super easy to harvest and has a super great flavor and very meaty. YUM!
The cloves are large, full and heavy. Of the two cloves I kept (shared 2 with my daughter), 12 were large enough to plant, 1 will be consumed.
