My long gourd seed connection fell through, I am on the hunt for a couple of long gourd seeds, I do not have much to trade with but I am willing to barter. If anybody could help me out that would be great.

LG seeds can be very stubborn to germinate...probably 10-14 days might be an average? I think some heat really helps them break out. I file the seed coat edges and soak and then right into warmed seed starting mix with Saran-Wrap over top to create mini-green houses so the mix doesn't dry out. LG's require patience to get going, but stand back once they get established so you don't get entwined in their vines...LOL
