Next time I plant em I’m gonna make sure I have more room! The seeds grew well, they came in a basic white packet instead of a normal seed packet that has image and seed description behavior, which I wasn’t a big fan of. They didn’t cost much which was nice, and the seeds were very weird and unique looking! Never had seen bottle gourd seeds before! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They are sprouting!! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 25, 2026* I read a book about growing gourds from seeds, and I snipped off the “ears” with a nail clipper, and soaked them overnight. I then planted them with seed starter mix in a tray with small compartments but then when I tried to remove them, some seedlings broke. So, I planted a few more seeds in peat pots, which I can plant directly in the ground once they grow 4 leaves. The seedlings grew so long that they were flopping over so I bought aluminum wire on Amazon and made stands that looked like lollipops so the circle at the top could hold them up. I also bought a grow light, not really necessary, though out of all the different kinds of seeds I planted, the gourd seeds are doing the best. Keep in mind that there will always be a few that don’t germinate but that’s life…and one thriving plant will take up a lot of room and proliferate. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great germination rate *by on Reviewed in the United States June 4, 2026* I’m amazed! ALL of the seeds sprouted! Too soon for gourds but I’m excitedly waiting! They look to be strong vines. I have so many birds around I’m looking forward to decorating the gourds for bird houses! I’d say it’s a great value for the money! ## Frequently Bought Together - Bottle Gourd Seed for Planting - 1 Packet with Instructions to Plant & Grow Birdhouse or Calabash Gourds in Your Home Vegetable Garden - Non-GMO Heirloom Variety Plant Seed - Survival Garden Seeds - Survival Garden Seeds 1 Pack Dipper Gourd Seeds for Planting – Packet with Instructions for Growing Non-GMO Heirloom Gourd Birdhouse Seeds in Your Home Vegetable Garden - Sow Right Seeds - Luffa Gourd Seed for Planting - Non-GMO Heirloom Packet with Instructions to Plant a Home Vegetable Garden - Grow Your Own Loofah Sponge at Home - Show Off Unique Gourds (1) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/615529893-bottle-gourd-seeds-for-planting-calabash-birdhouse-variety-1-pack](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/615529893-bottle-gourd-seeds-for-planting-calabash-birdhouse-variety-1-pack) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
