Thatās not the flowers, youāll know a flower when you see it. Thatās just a new junction growing on that vine.

0 gillningarNope, they want to find something to climb up or crawl across to maximize its surface area. Youāll probably see leaves and then some small prehensile vines all come from that node as the main vine continues growing that direction. You can tie them to a trellis or just let them take over the ground wherever theyāre planted. I havenāt quite gotten to the fruit production stage for my gourds (same as melons and cucumbers) so Iām not sure if my pollination attempt did anything yet.
