Caveman's Club Gourd Seeds
Named for its unique, large, club-shaped gourd. The fruit dries to a woody colour and texture and can be up to 1 m (3') long. Best results are achieved from directly sowing into a sunny, warm, well drained garden in June. For cleaner fruit, vines can be trained to grow on a trellis. Cut ripe fruit from the vine when it becomes firm and no longer yields to to hand pressure. Be careful not to bruise the fruit.
How to Grow
Gourds are a hot weather crop. They need full sun and deep, rich, well drained, organic soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Before planting, work in lots of compost. Directly plant seed outdoors in late May to June 2.5 cm (1") deep in hills 2.4 m (8') apart with 4-6 seeds per hill. After germination, thin to 3 plants per hill. Seed can be started indoors 3 weeks before the plant out date. They do not transplant well-use paper or fibre pots that can be set directly in the soil. Protect mature fruits from frost and cold temperatures.
Approx. 10 seeds/pkt.
