The listing, Next Autum's Harvest Money Makers... Large Speckled Swan gourd seeds, crafters delight. has ended.
I don't have alot of these left and they are going FAST.
This listing is for 12 seeds.
These are awesome, and sell fast at a local farm-stand. decorated or not... hollowed out , dried, painted..or fresh from the field.
I hollow out and dry when they are fresh, less work in the spring and the seeds are always in great condition for the following year's planting. Plus they dry quickly , and make great inside winter time projects, especially for Spring and Summer decorating.... etc etc etc....
As easy to grow as other vine crops.
The ideas for these is just about endless, imagine the possibilities...
A good site to gather ideas is Marthas Gourds, but - getting the seeds out when they are fresh seems to be best, and they dry faster, more evenly- when the outer skin peels off, so do any blemishes. This was hollowed out 11/06/2011 and it has been ready to work with, paint up, what ever...since about a week before Christmas..
I can also provide more tips and ideas.
Comments and questions are welcome and encouraged.
I will be sending these out to winner Tuesday, January 3rd, 2012.
