Garden tips for growing Snake Gourd in UK

Snake gourd is native to the tropical and subtropical regions of South and Southeast Asia.
This easy to grow decorative gourd is a vigorous plant that produces long elongated green fruits that is edible and is part of the family as cucumbers, pumpkin, and courgette.
I grew snake gourds in the UK and took an amazing harvest and have saved up the seeds for next summer. Please follow me ‪@RosyDaisy‬ more ideas.

Thanks Rosy i grew these this year. The weather was so bad with rain. But im starting now to get about 20 of these growing from 2 plants. Im hoping that they will grow to a reasonable size hopefully before it cools down in Uk i think the summers happen later now though. Many thanks again for generously giving your knowledge

[@RosyDaisy]

Ohhh… wow Lewis, that’s a good number from 2 plants. Yeah, they should mature in about 2 weeks or so
Summer this year has been wet than average and wish the weather stays warm for a bit longer. Good luck with your harvest. Thank you Lewis 😊
