Luffa is edible! Picking luffa at the right stage is essential for a great tasting luffa. look for one that is small and not to think as the fruit will still be nice and tender. Once the luffa gets larger it begins to form the sponge like structure becoming tough and unenjoyable for eating. I prefer to cook mine with butter and garlic and the luffa adds a nice subtle nutty flavor similar to a squash or zucchini. Give it a try, experiment and enjoy the many uses of the luffa plant! . . . #luffa #

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?
