This will be my first real try at growing bushel gourds. Do the gourds have tap roots at the leaf nodes like the giant pumpkins or can I put down weed barrier down to control the weeds?

Thanks

i grew mine on weed barrier and they did not root at the nodes. i was told they do root but probally only on soil.

How was your results? Do you think it hampered growth?

I will be happy to send you(or anybody else) a brief synopsis on how I grew the 279.5 bushel gourd.
