Luffa seedlings

This is a picture of my lovely luffas. I may have to get rid of one soon as it is getting crowded in the container and it is still too cold to transplant them to the yard. In retrospect, I probably should have started them indoors earlier and in a bigger pot. Luffas need 150 to 200 days to maturity and it can't stand cold weather or any kind of frost. I am happy to see that they're doing well so far. As you can see, it is growing another leaf right now and it looks different from the first two. I can't wait to see it opened!
