    I planted 10 seeds I purchased on EBAY. They sure do multiply like rabbits.

    I have picked 155 so far (and more drying on the vine).

    I watched this 41 second video to see how to spin them.

    So .... when do we see the video of you spinning all of yours then? :p

    You did really well getting all those gourds from just ten seeds. Definitely money well spent. :-D

    I guess gourds make excellent toys and birdhouses, because I would not know what else to do with them. Ok, they are also decorative and pretty.
