LUFFA SOAP TUTORIAL


What the heck is a Luffa, you ask?

It is a fibrous spongey-squishy-scratchy gourd-like thing
that grows on a vine, weighs a ton when green and light as a feather when cured.
It's a bath sponge, a car scrubber, an edible vegetable, too.
How's that for an explanation?



Here is a baby luffa after pollination.

We grow as many of these each year that we can!

Wub decided to make use of the old A-frame left on adjoining abandoned property.
What better to use it for than to grow luffa on?
