How to grow a loofah sponge and my first time experience growing them.

So, how do you grow a loofah? I thought loofahs grew in the ocean.

One day I was taking a shower and I noticed on the side of my shampoo bottle that it said you can grow your own loofahs. Huh! Amazing. I learned something new, so my creativity side said, “Lets grow some loofahs!” and that’s what I did.

This is my journey on how I grew my first loofahs in my backyard. I explain what loofahs are, how to grow them yourselves and how to use them.

Stay tuned till the end I have a YouTube video if you’d like to watch it.
