Luffa always takes over my garden, and it’s never ready when I need the space for cool season crops. This year, I’m growing it in a container and letting it climb over the chicken coop. It can stay in place until the gourds are ready to harvest, and I don’t have to pull it early. The bees are happy. I’m happy too. Want my luffa growing guide with tips on when to harvest? Comment SEND and I’ll send it your way. #Luffa #GrowingLuffa #LuffaGourds #VerticalGardening #ContainerGardening #ArizonaGarde
