Key aspects of bitter gourd farming:
Soil and Climate:
Bitter gourd thrives in well-drained sandy to sandy loam soils, particularly those rich in organic matter. It prefers warm temperatures between 25-30°C.
Planting:
Seeds are typically sown directly into the ground, as transplanting can be challenging. Spacing varies, but a common practice involves planting in pits or along rows with appropriate spacing (e.g., 1.5m wide beds with 45cm plant-to-plant spacing).
Support:
Bitter gourd is a climber and requires support to grow. Trellises, pergolas, or other structures are commonly used to provide vertical support, allowing the vines to climb and the fruits to develop properly.
Watering:
Regular and consistent watering is crucial, especially during the initial growth stages and during dry periods. The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Fertilizing:
Bitter gourd benefits from regular fertilization, including both organic and inorganic fertilizers. Specific fertilizer recommendations can be found in crop guides or from agricultural experts.
Pest and Disease Management:
Monitoring for pests and diseases is essential. Common pests include beetles, which can damage flowers, leaves, and stems. Neem oil spray and other organic pest control methods can be used. Common diseases include powdery mildew and fusarium wilt.
Harvesting:
Harvesting begins around 55-60 days after sowing. The fruits are typically harvested when they are fully developed but still young and tender, before they start to turn yellow. Harvesting is usually done every 2-3 days.
Yield:
A good bitter gourd crop can yield 100-150 quintals per hectare. The fruits have a relatively short shelf life.
Seed Production:
For seed production, fruits are harvested when they turn dark yellow to orange, and the seeds are extracted, cleaned, and dried.
