Luffa (LA-33)
Luffa LA-33 Seeds
Luffa, locally known as වැටකොළු, is a fast-growing vine that produces tender, fiber-rich gourds perfect for Sri Lankan cuisine. Commonly used in curries, stir-fries, and soups, luffa is packed with essential nutrients and is easy to grow at home. When fully matured, dried luffa can also be used as a natural sponge for household and skincare purposes.
How to Grow Luffa:
- Prepare the Soil – Use well-draining, fertile soil with organic compost.
- Sow the Seeds – Plant seeds 1 inch deep directly in the soil.
- Provide Support – As a climbing vine, luffa requires a strong trellis or fence for proper growth.
- Water Regularly – Keep the soil moist, especially during germination and early growth.
- Sunlight & Care – Ensure full sun exposure and apply organic fertilizers for better yield.
Harvest Time:
Luffa starts producing within 60-80 days after planting. Harvest young luffa for cooking, or let them fully mature to use as natural sponges.
