My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need seed help ..

21 years ago

Hi! I got my Chinese gourd seeds with instructions to soak them in water for 24 hours. I'm new at this so please excuse this dumb question ... I'm suppose to score the seed, right? Do I cut off the tip? Do I do this before or after I soak them.
