How do you grow loofah?

To grow loofah, plant seeds in warm soil after the last frost, ensuring full sun exposure. Space seedlings 24 inches apart in rows 6 feet apart. Water consistently, allowing soil to dry slightly between watering. Provide a trellis for loofah to climb, which enhances air circulation and fruit straightness. Harvest when loofah is young for culinary use or leave on the vine until mature for sponges. Protect against pests and rotate crops annually to prevent soil depletion and diseases.
