Young fruits were eaten, ripe fruits were used as bath sponges. Loofah mushrooms were until WWII the most used mushroom in the United States.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">The young, green fruit is eaten as a vegetable like ordinary cucumber. Quite early in the life of the fruit, it begins to form a distinct fibrous structure on the inside. On a fully ripe fruit, the skin easily peels off the fibrous interior, resulting in a near-perfect sponge that can be used in the same way as our regular household sponges - on the counter, in the bathroom or as a cleaning sponge.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">An advantage of using a loofah sponge is that it stays fresh significantly longer than a "regular" synthetic sponge.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">If you cut the loofah sponge along the long side so you can turn the sponge inside out, you can use the more textured inside as a stronger scrub and the smoother outside as a softer scrub.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Edible young shoots, leaves and flowers - a common way is to "stir" leaves and shoots in a little soy sauce etc. Asian sauces. Seeds left over after harvesting ripe luffa can be roasted and eaten like pumpkin seeds.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">The fibers that run along the long side of the fruit's edges are durable and can be used as cords for tying up other plants, for example.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><strong data-mce-fragment="1">Culture:</strong></p> <p data-mce-fragment="1"><meta charset="utf-8">Mushroom cucumber wants to be in a sunny location with good water supply. Grows best in locations with sunlight throughout the day. If you have a greenhouse, it is a perfect place for the mushroom cucumber.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Thrives best in a loamy, well-drained and nutrient-rich soil. Regular nutrient supply is preferred.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Provide plenty of room for climbing for optimal growth.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">At first, the fruit is firm in shape and green in color. It is when the fruit is around 10 cm that the fruit is edible. Soon after that<meta charset="utf-8"> a fibrous structure begins to form inside the skin that makes the fruit unsuitable for edible purposes.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">When the fruit becomes lighter and the skin begins to feel looser against the inside and the color turns yellow to brownish, the fruit is ready to be harvested. Preferably harvest the fruits before they turn completely brown and the skin becomes dry, it can be difficult to peel the fruits without damaging the inside otherwise.</p> <p data-mce-fragment="1">Pinch the fruits off the vine and let them dry for another day before soaking them for a couple of hours to help remove the skin.

<p><strong>Luktpion av sorten 'Alexander Fleming': nuvarande höjd 20–30 cm i C2 kruka</strong><br><br><strong>Trivialnamn:</strong> Luktpion<br><strong>Vetenskapligt namn:</strong> <em>Paeonia lactiflora</em><br><strong>Familj:</strong> Paeoniaceae</p> <h4>Växthistoria &amp; användning</h4> <p>Luktpionen har odlats i Sverige sedan 1800-talet och är uppskattad för sin doft, sin hållbarhet som snittblomma och sitt stabila växtsätt. Sorten ’Alexander Fleming’ får stora, tätt fyllda ljusrosa blommor med kraftig doft – klassisk pionkänsla i både uttryck och doft.</p> <p>Förutom sitt prydnadsvärde har pioner använts i både mat och traditionell örtmedicin, framför allt i Asien.

A.</strong> <em>The Encyclopedia of Medicinal Plants</em>).</p> <h4>Odling</h4> <p>Trivs i sol till lätt halvskugga i väldränerad, näringsrik jord. Pioner vill stå orörda – plantera på permanent plats och undvik att flytta dem i onödan. Knölarna planteras grunt; för djupt planterade pioner blommar dåligt. ’Alexander Fleming’ är härdig och långlivad, och blommar år efter år med lite grundskötsel.
