Large Bottle Gourd Seeds - 12 Premium Calabash Seeds for Easy Growing
Large Bottle Gourd Seeds for Easy Cultivation
Grow your own calabash gourds with these premium 12 seeds. These bottle gourds are easy to cultivate once germinated and thrive on trellises or fences to maintain their shape, preventing flattening if grown on the ground. Perfect for creating birdhouses—simply dry, drill holes for access and drainage, and hang. Dried gourds can also be decorated as ornaments or musical instruments.
As vigorous growers, they adapt well to supports like arbors. Ensure consistent watering in hot, dry conditions and handle with care due to shallow roots. Start indoors 4 weeks before outdoor planting for the long 100+ day season. Scarify seeds by roughening with sandpaper and soaking for 24 hours before planting 1/2 inch deep in peat pots to avoid root disturbance. Minimal packaging with ziplock labeled bags—no instructions attached; refer to details for cultivation advice.
