The luffa gourdes grow 12 to 18 inches long and can be dried and seeded to make durable sponges. The Gourd seeds do well in moist soil and can be harvested off the vine when ready.Luffa Gourd seeds can be sown indoors 2-4 weeks before the last frost and transplanted after 4 weeks. When sowing outside, plant the Luffa Gourd seeds 1 inch deep in moist soil, 6 feet between seeds.
