I'm harvesting my Luffas (/Loofahs) and this is a little guide on when to harvest them, and what to do if yours aren't quite ready yet.
Growing luffas is a lot of fun and I hope that this video will get you well on your way to growing your own luffas too.
It's important to harvest luffas at the right time so that they are well formed and don't produce a big sticky mess! If you peel them at the right time the job will be quick, easy and (pretty much) mess free!
Luffas are a really great alternative to plastic sponges in the bathroom and in the kitchen. They are sustainable, fun to grow and make for hard wearing dish sponges and exfoliating tools.
I grew just two luffa plants this year and they produced a total of 25 luffas in the end - that's enough for all my friends and family and some for me to reduce my plastic usage in the year to come.
