Culture. Gourd seeds are usually sown in the open ground 
in May. For an early crop seed may be sown in pots placed 
in hotbeds and set out into the open sround when all danger 
of frost is past This adds to the time of maturing the Gourds 
on the vine. “When very large fruits are desired, only two or 
three should be left on each plant. The branches should then 
be cut a few leaves beyond the last fruit. Do not let vines 
suffer for lack of water.
