Time for planning your "Gourd Patch". Ordering seeds may be an important part of your planting if you want to grow specific varieties. The American Gourd Society is a great place to start searching for seed. There are growers that sell all varieties through the American Gourd Soc.

This may be a good time to contact your local County Agent at the Extension Office about testing your soil for what may be needed to amend it to the correct PH balance.
