Too hard

Bottle gourd

 

A field with a mixture of watermelon, cucumber, bottle gourd and sweet potato vines

 

 These are  Bottle gourds that my husband harvested the other day.

I remembered that my mother-in-law used to make dried gourd.

So I challenged myself to make dried gourd.

But I gave up it at the first stage.

I didn't know that the peel of the bottle gourd was so hard.

I couldn't cut it at all. 

So my husband put a knife on the gourd and hit it with a hammer, and we managed to cut it off.

 I couldn't handle it at all.

At last, we disposed them into the compost.

 

 By the way, I planted three seedlings of watermelon.

But we harvested watermelon, cucumber and bottle gourd.
