Just in case you're wondering, what you see in the bowl here is what 20 lbs looks like!
And that's not including the few extras on the sides - a few more gourds, a bird house gourd that's slowly rotting, and a couple butternut squash (one of which is really oddly shaped!)
Check out that variety - don't they look cool!? I kept saying I wouldn't need to grow more next year since I'm hoping most of these dry nicely, but who'm I kidding? Gourds are fun! I'll probably have to grow them again next year - maybe aiming for different shapes, colors, varieties.... People think I should be selling these, but I honestly doubt I'd make THAT much off've these, plus I want to have a lot of them for the Halloween party...

NICE - we have a bunch this year but - alas the rains and weather have had even some of the cool gourds rotting on us.
I've had one or two that weren't quite ready to harvest when I took 'em off the vine (or before they got knocked off by me or the dog). Oh well - there's still plenty!
