- You can get so many benefits from loofah plants: food, face lotion, seeds for planting and sponges. I came up with nine ways in which I currently use these durable and hygienic sponges. Can you think of any other ways?

Other than sponges. If you have ducks, geese or chickens you can make a nesting pad by cutting square pieces of cardboard, covering them with a luffa piece and sewing it together and make a patchwork of luffa and sew all the pieces together. Which is pretty handy to save money in the long run.
Great Video, I never thought of all those uses before. I will try them . Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you. I learnt new things today.
I'm so glad!
loofah sponge is truly compostable material, better than any ecofriendly products cause is 100% natural
Very inspiring and valuable vedio❤❤❤
Thank you for your encouraging comments. Please see the video I just posted "Our Loofah Sponge Story" about our harvesting experience last September.
I love all the ideas 💡
Thank you. Let me know if you have any new ideas. I heard some people are using loofah in place of filters on some machines.
I scrub my body dry with loofah before taking the shower. It helps me a lot with itching areas in my back. I feel so so so good after applying the loofah in my back.
You gave me a great idea of using the loofah dry. I tried it and I like it. This year we got a few very long loofahs and I want to experiment with making a loofah for back-scrubbing. Any good ideas?
Good for u

I just subscribed to the channel to learn about tools and tricks from Japan. Keep up the work. Great video.
Awesome, thank you!
This video convinced me to buy a hechima! thank you so much!
I'm so glad! If I can go a step further, why not try to grow one. They can be grown in pots in a small location as well as in a larger garden.
I just subscribed. Thank you for this video
Awesome video!!
I am glad you liked it. Thank you.
Superb quality
Thank you.
i bought one and like the texture of it , however i have sensitive skin and its just way to hard for me , is there a way to make it more squishy or soft ?
How long did you boil the green luffa before they were ready to peel? Thanks.
I don't remember exactly, maybe 20~30 minutes or until the outside begins to look soft. Good luck.
you have to make a hook from the wire to make it easier for the rope to pass through the luffah, always blessed ❤
Thanks for the tip!
You may be able to use it to humidify your room. You put half of the bottom portion of the Luffa in the water, then the water will evaporate from the top portion of the Luffa.
Noted, great share❤
Thank you for the helpful tip. I will have to try it.
I'm loofah manufacture from India
How wonderful. Our harvest this year was a little better than last year. We had to overcome so much rain. How is the weather in India for growing loofah?
I'm also a loofah farmer in Trinidad...a tiny island in the Caribbean. I love the loofah too
Hahaha.....
I am loofah manufacture from China, nice to meet u guys😂
@@heartofjapan9122Good to u 🎉🎉🎉
Hello
Hello
If you’re using a loofah once, and then throw it away, it’s ok but if you don’t. I suggest you never use them, because they are bacteria infected. you are washing your body with this and then leaving it inside the shower it’s going to get infected by 🦠 . I suggest you use washcloths one for your face and one for your body. Once you are done using them, you can wash them. Remember only use the washcloth once and then throw them in the washer. take what I’m saying into consideration, and do some research please.
Thank you for sharing. That is good to know.
You are silly. Soap is a surfactant. Soap molecules stick to water, and they stick to dirt and grease. As long as you RINSE out your sponge/loofah, you are unlikely to grow bad bacteria. Another important step is to air out the sponge and let it dry, if it stays wet for too much time, it will contract airborne bacteria and grow mold. Allowing it to dry stops bacteria growth. Don't wash your washcloth after every use, it's just a waste of energy and water, and your cloth will wear out sooner.
I think my comment disappeared, but I was trying to explain to you that soap is a surfactant. The molecules of soap bind to water AND grease and dirt. As long as you RINSE out the sponge, the dirt and grime will go away with the soap and rinse water. Please do not waste more energy and water by washing your towels every single use! 🤦🏻♀️
@@ewe392 I don’t think you understand how bacteria works🤣 you are in denial because the truth is uncomfortable. All you have to do is some research. Let’s just hope you’re not saving energy and water by not washing your hands every day or using the same t shirt, underwear and socks more than once..🤢 some people hygiene is insane.
@@Wtfpleasehlp you are not letting your sponge dry out then. The traces of bacteria that are left should be dried up after each use. It pauses their growth. I don't think you understand how the human immune system works. You need to be exposed to small amounts of bacteria in order for your body to build an immunity to it. A kitchen sponge made of plastic has less areas for moisture to evaporate from, it is of higher possibility that it could grow bacteria over time. A natural loofah is not as dense, and will dry, therefore halting any bacteria growth. You constantly have bacteria around you, on you, in you. On your pillow, toothbrush, keyboard, steering wheel........if you constantly sanitized everything your entire life, and suddenly we're exposed to bacteria, your body would have no defense against it. You have a high possibility of getting sick constantly. Think viruses, similar. Analogy, American Indians vs European diseases.

Nope. They’re Nicer grown in AMERICAN dirt!!!
Ha, ha, I don't have that experience.
How can I get it here in Nigeria?
Depends on how many do u want❤
If your climate will grow them, I suggest trying to get some seeds online. Keep trying even if the plants die at first. I did and now I can grow them successfully.
It grows on fence very well in Nigeria
