You can also gently clip the very tip of the seed shoulders (away from the inner embryo eye) to allow moisture in faster. Sow the seeds 1 inch deep in a warm, loose, well-draining starting mix. Keep the soil consistently warm and damp—under optimal conditions, these fast-growing sprouts will eagerly burst through the soil within 5 to 10 days!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e","brand":"Betri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48407955374321,"sku":null,"price":134.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/4476\/0049\/files\/a_ae1c0459-0283-487f-a2d5-2e6a91712c76.webp?v=1784035044","url":"https:\/\/sejahteraseeds.com\/products\/fresh-long-bottle-gourd-lagenaria-siceraria-100-premium-fast-growing-seeds","provider":"Sejahtera Seeds and Bulbs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
