Bottle gourd
A field with a mixture of watermelon, cucumber, bottle gourd and sweet potato vines
These are Bottle gourds that my husband harvested the other day.
I remembered that my mother-in-law used to make dried gourd.
So I challenged myself to make dried gourd.
But I gave up it at the first stage.
I didn't know that the peel of the bottle gourd was so hard.
I couldn't cut it at all.
So my husband put a knife on the gourd and hit it with a hammer, and we managed to cut it off.
I couldn't handle it at all.
At last, we disposed them into the compost.
By the way, I planted three seedlings of watermelon.
But we harvested watermelon, cucumber and bottle gourd.
