          I have no idea. Dad never complained about them and had a whole trellis of them.

              Tbh, I’d grow them myself except

              1. They spread out like crazy
              2. My HOA would have kittens. We’re not allowed to grow quote “vegetables” because they might attract bears. I’ve gotten away with mint and chives because they’re small and I can argue being confused (“herbs aren’t vegetables!”) but a trellis full of growing giant dangling luffa on my condo porch might be a bit much.

          Any melon, gourd, or even most vine-based flowers I really recommend a simple automated irrigation mechanism especially in a hot climate because they are thirsty.
