Wild Cucumber (Echinocystis lobata) is a fast growing vine that can reach 25 ft and cover a fence or wall. Its unusual spiny fruit contains a fibrous interior resembling a tiny loofah.
We collected this seed from vines that have grown wild and sown themselves behind the barn at our old farmyard for at least twenty years.
Seed requires about two months of cold stratification.

How to stratify seed
In the fridge. Put the seed in a bag with a damp medium such as peat moss, vermiculite, sand or coco coir. The medium is only there to hold moisture. Keep the bag in the fridge, above freezing, for the cold period shown, then sow.
Or outside. Sow the seed outdoors in the fall and let winter do the cold period.
