In this video I explain the methods I use to dry the gourds that my family and I grow on our farm. You will be able to see our large field of gourds, gourds hanging from the trees, freshly picked gourds, the first signs of a gourd drying out, what a gourd looks like as it is drying out, and what it looks/feels/sounds like when a gourd is ready to craft with. Gourds can be dried both inside some shelter and outside under the sky and exposed to the elements. I show you what a gourd looks like in both cases and the precautions you need to take if drying inside. by Bernadette Fox from [ Ссылка ]
