How do I dry a loofah?

I know that someone out there posted the directions for how to dry loofahs, but for the life of me, I can't find them. I have about 20 HUGE ones on my vine and want to know what to do with them to make them like the sponges you see in the stores.

If anyone can point me to the directions, it would be great!!! Thanks!!!

Here's a good page or two...

Leave 'em on the vine until they turn brown!

Thank you so much eje!!!

Oh, and Dave and other folks have some advice on the Luffa page in the pdb:
