Today I took a few of my luffas to shop in town to sell for me. Out of that giant haul that I had, I only had a few that made it all the way to maturity. Baker Creek just came out with a different variety that has a 100 day maturity instead of 130 days. I'm hoping my harvest is more successful next year! And I am hoping these sell quickly!

you make these?
interested in the process and what it is exactly? veey cool.
I grew them. They are gourds. They look like zucchinis. When they are young, you can eat them, although the one time I tried them, I didn't like them. When they are fully grown they form all of these strong fibers. You can then peel them, clean out all of the seeds and goop, and then dry them. Then you can use them for scrubby sponges.
