Visiting luffa
 |
 Oh, this is the appearance of the luffa male flower. |
 |
 Clear? I’m the female flower of the luffa, you can see, I’m different from the male one. Have you seen the young fruit under the petals? So, it’s so easy to distinguish me from the male flower. |
 As discovered by the team members, the luffa tendrils have strong winding capacity, which will climb on the shed, bamboo rod and bush! |
 Uncles on the luffa farm demonstrate how to extract luffa water to the team members, which really attracts our attentions. |
|
 Uncles on the luffa farm cut off the luffa stem, put on a plastic bag on it, and seal the bag with black tape, so that the luffa stem will not be polluted by the other impurities. |
 How thick the luffa stem is! Team members borrow car keys from their accompanying teachers for comparison. As seen, the luffa stem is as thick as the ring size of two thumbs. |
 Team members wonder that “how thick and hard the luffa stems are!” after they touched the luffa stem by hand. |
|
 After 30-min waiting, there is really some transparent luffa juice in the plastic bag. |
 Wow! How big a luffa can be! It is so different from the size of luffa seen by us on the market. Besides, the dried luffa is so light! |
 Team members listen to the accompanying teachers to describe the physiological characteristics of the luffa leaves. |
