Last year I grew birdhouse gourds and they got the mosaic virus and attracted cucumber beetles. I'm going to clean them out sometime this week and I am planning on throwing the seeds away from 25 gourds. If they are safe to replant, it would be a shame for me to throw all those seeds away.

Thank you!!
