How I Make Sponges From LUFFA Grown In My BACKYARD! Tutorial - Homemade Gift Ideas!

[@emilyclontz4009]

For the green one, if you put slits in them around the husk then bake them for 30 minutes at 200°, it will come right off. Then you let them dry in the oven more after the cool down or hang dry them! :)

I'm so happy that I watched this. Rainy day in Florida, I've binged your channel most of the day.

[@rebeccaspratling2865]

I would have been outside in the rain. 😂 But this is an amazing channel to binge. 😊

[@Fatimasroots]

It’s so lovely that you’re showing others what they can grow! I hope to inspire others to do the same with my garden videos🌿🌸 thank you for your inspiration!

[@teeteepimentalrogers4386]

Hello, new sub here. I'm not a homesteader or a gardener, but I came across your recent videos, and I am absolutely in awe of you. The things you accomplish in a day are exhausting to watch! 😮 You're adorable and strong as an ox. I hope you one day get your dream land and I can't wait to see what you'll do with that! You're amazing! Much love from Rhode Island. Terry 🙏♥️💯

[@jayneeburks8482]

Another thing I have not grown. I am inspired! 😁

[@jackiek4159]

I didn't know that you could grow your own sponges! This is so cool! 😍🙌

[@lindseythompson2108]

Blanket stitch would make a good edging just search. Really enjoyed seeing how to make the sponges.

[@MW-rb3ny]

We grew these this year. It was so fun!

[@Dirtgranule98]

Very beautiful, I love nature, plants and everything in nature

[@richelleg225]

I definitely want to grow luffa next year!

[@samseddie01]

alright I'm gonna harvest mine. you inspired me but I only got 2 :) oh well

[@karenwadlin1761]

It’s a start!!

[@rebeccaspratling2865]

Better than zero. 😊

[@zsanettvarga5535]

I just harvested the first one of the 3 that grew this year 😂

[@TheCornDavis]

Yeeeees another video! Lets gooooo! I absolutely love loofahs! They are the only sponge that works well for me in bathing

[@toddmiller1753]

Ok so those are like the ones you see in bath and body store thing? So cool I never knew you could grow them! I'm starting to plan my 1st garden ever for this coming season, these will be on my list, thank you so much for the info!

[@vivianaosorio3250]

This is the world’s GD BEST LUFFA. I use nothing else. Simple dried out zucchini 🥰 nature’s best truly

[@judabrisfam7604]

Now I want to grow these next year!

[@StatusgrowerT73]

How cool , thanks for this video 😊my seeds are on the way 🎉

[@Rural-UrbanDivide]

This was such an amazing tutorial, I'm sold! Totally trying to grow some next year!

[@pauly0169]

I have about 4 growing right now, racing against time here in Wisconsin. Hope the weather holds out long enough

[@linesbylisa3557]

That’s amazing! I’m going to have to grow them! Is didn’t know they had so many uses.

[@kimberlyearly8918]

I'm so glad you shared this! I've often wondered how you turn those long, odd looking 'fruits' into sponges! I this I might give it a go next year. How many seeds did you plant?

[@striketochill]

Yay thank you for this video!!! Awesome!!

[@enersaveltd]

Love this! I grew loofah for the first time this year and I’m excited to try and make these. I wonder if maybe baking the green ones at a low temp would help with peeling the skins or putting in a dehydrator? Hmmmm

[@thehumanrebuildd]

I grew Luffa this year and last week I successfully pollinated 2 and one today!! Can't wait to harvest 🤝🏾 It's 3 stories high and growing 😂😂😂

[@elizabethwall42]

This is so cool I had no idea you could grow them like this!

[@MM-qk8eg]

This helped a lot. Thanks for the instructions

[@emekasearthgems3376]

I love this! Thanks for sharing 💜

[@mariacristinacunha5789]

Amazing!! 👏👏

[@rebeccawatson9284]

Awesome ❤

[@sherry2836]

What a fun project! Are they soft enough to use on your body? Definitely a great "homegrown, handmade" 'gift idea !

[@itsbreellis]

Yes they are!

[@christytschappat2592]

Thank you for granting my request in making this video. I had no idea! This video was very interesting. I always wondered how they were processed. And the soap… how neat. How long do these stay fresh? ❤❤❤❤

[@pomroy65]

these are beautiful! I never knew you could make them flat like this by cutting the loofah! Thank you!

[@go-healthy8132]

Sooo cool 🙏👍😘😘😘

[@Akr7c]

We use to luffa sponge for scrub our body in the shower and washes dishes in the village, no need to loofah plastic

[@debbiemullins9614]

Thank you

[@SeareanMoon]

I want to try growing them one year! plan to start indoors early (Alaskan here) so it has a chance to brown :p

[@riverrootsfarm]

I found you on Insta but I’m definitely subscribing here too! I’m so glad I watched the full tutorial for this bc the addition of the soap bar is genius! I will definitely give this a try :)

[@kimkassy5817]

Love this idea! I’m gonna do this next spring! Can you pick them green and let them go brown off the vine or do you have to leave them on till brown?

[@meganlugg5571]

Hi Bre, growing Luffas for the first time. Can they be used in the bottom of nesting boxes?

[@treehouse8501]

Is that a flower tattoo on your left arm? Very cool

[@specialkthesoftballgirl]

Can I ask when you plant your luffa seeds? Do you start them indoors/in pots or just sow them outdoors?

[@debdcampbell]

I am just finding your channel! Love the style. Do you sell any loofah seeds

[@ShamimJahuri]

We found heaven,you heaven on earth.i need luffa seed.shamim✌💚👏🦋

[@brajo2719]

Hi Bree, Bro here from India, Bangalore. As most, I too watched your video with absolute care and I'm excited to do something what you have done. Since you are experienced, could you guide me how do I colour bleach the vibe dried brownish loofah. By the by, you are from which country and where is your farm house. Looking forward ❤

[@gracevelynwho]

Hello! I'm curious- where did you initially find Luffah seeds??

[@robgonzalez129]

Hi I am going to start growing loofahs the spring. Do I have to worry about rodents? Any idea on how to keep them away?

[@olgavitiuc3357]

I never grew loofahs and know nothing about them, but is it possible to dry them off the vine? Like, if you hang them in the basement or a garage so they don't get rained on, will they dry, or will they rot? ETA: also, is it loofah, or luffa? :)

[@itsbreellis]

It can be spelled either way! I tried to dry a few last year in my basement and even with good airflow they got moldy. I plan to try out drying a few different ways this year to see if I can figure something else out

[@olgavitiuc3357]

@@itsbreellis Good luck! Share your results with us please :)

[@lilygibson5309]

What do you use the seeds for ? 😊

[@rachelmcdonald9897]

Hello, can you clarify the “1:4 ratio of water to vinegar?” Do you really mean 1 cup water to 4 cups vinegar? Or is it 1:4 vinegar to water? (i.e. 4 cups water, 1 cup vinegar?) thank you! Love the idea to sew in the soap bar; I plan to try it! Also what part of the country are you in? I’m in Austin, pretty sure I planted my luffa in mid April, and hoping they’ll dry up enough to harvest before I need to get fall veg in the ground at the beginning of September. Thanks!!

[@mayuribezborah7524]

1:4 how much is vinegar??

[@racheljensen575]

What store brand seeds do i use?

[@sandrazuchara3270]

Do you grow a specific variety?

[@flaviaconde112]

Do you know you can eat them when they are young?

[@shalaperez9205]

Where is kansas are you growing?

[@lynnjustice9212]

How big do you make yours?

[@folksagabookart]

I tried growing these for the first time this year but I got nothing from them. This summer has been mostly rain though, extremely rainy. So that might be why.
