I am starting the luffa balls hopefully this weekend for this year. I did not expect them to take SOOO long to germinate last year. Since they took so long to germinate, I think I just had too late a start on them. I got to the point of germination and a small luffa ball growing, but we had an early frost. Though I did cover the plants, it was too cold and wet and I lost everything :( But, I did manage to find some small luffa balls at the Mt. Gilead Gourd Show here in Ohio!

Here's a picture of how far I did get.
