Gourds
We had a bumper crop of gourds last fall. I put them all in crates and stacked them in the barn for the winter. A couple weeks ago, I decided it was time to put them out and let the weather do its work on them.So I moved them out onto the cement in front of the barn. The sun and the rain are helping the curing process along, washing off the mold that accumulated on their surface over the winter. The first time I tried this a couple of years ago, I thought I killed them all when they started to turn black. But when they were dry, I found that they cleaned much more easily than the ones that had been kept inside. Next year, I might just leave them outside all winter. I think it's worth a try.
