Thanks for your concern and offer. Of course, I am in N.E. Ohio and our last freeze is usually May 30 - (or Memorial Day) and I don't know whether or not to try and start them in the house under lights before. If so, I don't know how early to start them, as I know they need a longer growing season. I tried planting some last year and NOTHING, but NOTHING happened. (smile.) I figured I had planted them too early. thanks again, Jan Rowena Philbeck wrote: > Jan, > > If you would like some information on gourd planting please email me with > your address and I will gladly send you instructions on growing the great > GOURDS!!! > > Sometime, our list gets kind of confusing if you are new... > > Rowena > > "To touch a gourd is to touch a little bit of history" > > Rowena Philbeck 5377 Rye School Rd. > SouthWest Creations Bryan, Texas 77807 > (409) 779-0581
