You can also try wrapping them in a wet paper towel and putting them in a loosely sealed plastic bag at a temperature of 80–90°F to help them germinate. Provide warmth and lightGrow the seedlings in a warm, well-lit place under cover, like a greenhouse or polytunnel. Use a heat mat to keep the soil temperature between 70–85°F. Once the seeds sprout, keep grow lights close by to prevent leggy seedlings. Water regularlyWater the plants daily, but don't overwater. Loofahs don't need as much water as other plants, like courgettes or marrows. You can try watering from the bottom to prevent damping off. Harden offOnce the risk of frost has passed, you can carefully repot the plants outdoors in grow bags or large pots. Provide supportLoofah vines can grow up to 30 feet long and need lots of room to spread out, or you can provide a sturdy trellis for them to climb. Feed weeklyBoost fruiting by feeding the plants weekly. Protect from pestsLoofahs are susceptible to squash bugs, so you should regularly check for them or their eggs and remove them by hand-picking. You can also try using Neem as a natural deterrent.
