Gourd fever

I think there is a fever of gourds on this site. When a person throws seeds on ground, no special care it sounds like Jack and the Beanstalk! Ha! Ha! You folks are wonderful, thanks so much.

....LOL....since we formed the GHGS, I've been busy posting anything informative & motivational I can find pertaining to gourds! That's why you are seeing so much about them. AND, if we're going to stay hyped up until we can grow gourds, and dry them....and decorate them...and turn them into birdhouses, we need to all stay in touch through these posts. Let's all catch GOURD FEVER!!

You are such a wonderful teacher. Thank you for helping us learn about gourds :) It is much appreciated. I saved the Gourd Chart to my favorites. I like the Chinese bottle and the Kettle Dipper shapes. But I do see some painting crafts in other shapes also. FUN stuff! xoxo SandiB

Thank you for all your research and providing us with such awesome resources, Maw. I love this chart! Seeing all the different shapes and variations side by side gets the imagination going for projects with them. Of course, now I want to grow more of them, ha, when there's a will, there's a way! I wonder if growing them on log teepees would work.?

....grow them on most anything. Did you see the the post I put up about the man who just stuck a few seeds into the ground around an old utility trailer? The gourds came up and covered the trailer, and filled it with gourds! He didn't even cultivate the soil first!! So A log teepee should work fine! Keep us posted if you use that to grow them on!
