Harvesting loofah at the right time makes peeling them easy. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣After peeling, rinse the sponges well by spraying them off with a hose; allow the rinsed loofah to dry thoroughly in the sunlight.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Saving seeds is easy; when it is ready to harvest as a sponge, the seeds are usually ready, too. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣Once the loofah dries, shake out the seeds inside the gourd, and if they are black, then save the seeds to share with others and plant the following year.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
