PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU BID.. I really hate to put this kind of message on my auction pages, but thngs have gotten out of hand. I want anyone who has a problem to please message me before you file a dispute. I ALWAYS make my customers happy, I have noticed it takes around three weeks for the post office to get their act together and deliver my seeds. If you are impatient or just like to file disputes because it makes you feel special, please do not bid on my auctions, If you file a dispute before telling me the problem I will block you. I go out of my way to find special seeds for my customers and get great feedback. Also, I can't afford tracking, so if you want it you will have to pay for it.
This vegetable produces long and curved fruits that appear like snakes hanging on the supports or ground. This subtropical plant grows very fast in warm climates and produces lots of fruits for a long time. It is best to grow this vine plant along the supports for obtaining young straight fuits. Young fruits are harvested and cooked like Luffa. Seed has hard coat and may take a long time to germinate. There are several varieties with different fruit skin and length grown in Asia. An interesting plant for home garden and fresh market.
NOTE: Snake Gourd needs insects to carry out the pollinating process for setting fruits. If the insects are not available in your area, the pollinating process can be done manually, by picking up male flowers and transferring pollens to femal flowers (face-to-face touching the center part of flowers). This process should be carried out when flowering is active during the daytime.
