With outlinez@outlinez we grew a lot of gourds this year.

Most of them ripened about a month ago and I had left them to dry in an airy and cool place.

Now, at the end of October, the first frosts began to fall in our area and it is time to harvest the remaining gourds that had not ripened before.

Many of them rotted and went to the composter. Others we gave to neighbors.

The gourds are of different sizes and very interesting.

I personally like the smallest ones the most. A perfectly shaped gourd, only in mini size.

Our neighbor recently has a little kitten who regularly visits us and he also really liked the gourds. It also joined the photo session.
