Luffa Plants

Question

My Luffa plant is growing but there are no sign of flowers. Its just a long vine. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Luffa grows and fruits quite vigorously, although they take longer than other squash varieties. Make sure they have plenty of sun, water, and you might want to add bone meal to your fertilizing to help encourage flowering and subsequent fruiting. This article may also help:
