FITO Kasata Bittergourd Seeds

विवरण

FITO Kasata Bitter Gourd Seeds offer a combination of desirable aesthetic qualities, good yield, and early harvest time. They are also a good choice for those who are looking for disease-resistant seeds.  

Key Features  

  • F1 Hybrid: This indicates the seeds are a first-generation cross between two bitter gourd varieties, known for desirable traits like uniformity, vigor, and disease resistance. 
  • White Color: Kasata bitter gourds are known for their attractive white color. 
  • Medium Tubercles: The gourds have a bumpy texture with medium-sized bumps. 
  • Long & Attractive: Kasata bitter gourds are known for their long and visually appealing shape. 
  • Productive: The plants are known to produce a good yield of gourds. 

Benefits: 

  • Early Harvest: You can expect your first harvest in around 45-50 days after planting. 
  • Size & Shape: The gourds grow to a good size (20-25 cm long and 3.2-3.6 cm wide) with a cylindrical, elongated shape, ideal for various culinary uses. 

  Land Preparation:     

  • Choose a Sunny Location: Select a sunny location with well-drained soil. Gourds won't tolerate soggy conditions, so avoid planting them in areas that tend to flood or have poor drainage. 
  • Prepare the Soil: The ideal soil for gourds is fertile, well-drained, and loamy or sandy. A soil pH between 6.0 and 7.0 is preferred. 
  • Amend the Soil (optional): If your soil is not fertile or well-drained, you can amend it before planting. Here's how: Add organic matter: Apply decomposed manure or compost to the planting area at a rate of 10-12 tons per hectare. You can also add aged manure to the planting holes. 
  • Improve drainage: If your soil is heavy clay, you can improve drainage by adding sand or other organic matter. Raised beds are another option for improving drainage in poorly drained soils. 
  • Tilling and Weeding: Begin preparing the land 3-4 weeks before planting. Till the soil to a fine tilth, which is a loose, crumbly condition that is easy for plant roots to penetrate. Remove any weeds or debris from the planting area. 

 Sowing    

  • Sowing Time: 
  • Sowing Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd prefers warm weather. Aim for planting in the spring or summer months after the danger of frost has passed. 
  • Some regions may have a second planting window during the rainy season. 
  • Seed Selection: 
  • Choose high-quality Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seeds from a reputable source. Consider factors like variety, maturity time, and disease resistance. 
  • Direct Sowing vs. Transplanting: 
  • Some gourds, like bottle gourds and luffa, thrive with direct sowing in prepared planting holes. 
  • Other varieties, like sponge gourds, may benefit from starting Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seedlings indoors in pots before transplanting outdoors. 
  • Planting Depth: 
  • Follow the recommended planting depth for your specific gourd variety. It's usually around 1-2 inches deep. 
  • Seed Spacing: 
  • Each planting hole should hold the recommended number of Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seeds for your chosen gourd variety. Thin seedlings later if necessary to maintain proper spacing for mature plants. 
  • Watering: 
  • Water the planting area thoroughly after sowing Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seedlings to ensure good seed-to-soil contact and promote germination.  

 Transplanting:     

  • Timing is Crucial: Transplant Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seedlings when they have developed 4-5 true leaves, typically around 2-3 weeks after sowing. 
  • Harden Them Up: Before transplanting, harden off your seedlings for a week or two. Gradually expose them to increased sunlight, wind, and cooler temperatures to mimic outdoor conditions. This reduces transplant shock. 
  • Prepare the Planting Area: Ensure the chosen location has well-drained, fertile soil amended with compost or manure if needed. Space the planting holes according to your specific Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd variety. 
  • Dig Carefully: When removing seedlings from their pots or trays, gently loosen the soil and lift the entire root ball to minimize root damage. 
  • Plant at the Right Depth: Dig a hole deep enough to accommodate the seedling's root ball. Plant the seedling so the lowest true leaves are slightly above the soil surface. 
  • Water Well: Water the newly transplanted Fito Kasata Bitter Gourd seedlings thoroughly to settle the soil around the roots and eliminate air pockets. 
  • Continuing Care: Provide regular watering during the initial establishment period, especially during hot or dry weather. Monitor for signs of transplant shock, such as wilti0ng, and provide shade if necessary. 

Harvesting Gourds    

  • Look for Signs: Generally, gourds are ready for harvest when the stem begins to brown and dry out. The skin may also change color, becoming dull or developing a yellowish tinge for some varieties. 
  • Tenderness Test (for culinary gourds): For gourds consumed fresh, gently press the skin with your thumb. If it yields slightly, it's ready for picking. A hard, unyielding skin indicates it needs more time. 
  • Sharp is Best: Use sharp pruners or shears to cut the gourd from the vine. Leave a short stem attached (about 1-2 inches) to help prevent rot during storage. 
  • Timing is Key: For continuous harvest, pick gourds regularly at the recommended stage. This encourages the plant to produce more fruits. Leaving gourds on the vine for too long can hinder further production. 
  • Avoid Frost: Don't wait for frost to harvest your gourds. Frost can damage the fruits and shorten their storage life. 
  • Drying Gourds: If you're harvesting gourds for crafting purposes, allow them to dry completely on the vine before picking. This can take several weeks. Signs of dryness include a completely brown and papery stem and a lightweight feel to the gourd. 
  • Ripening: If your melons are slightly underripe, you can try to ripen them at room temperature for a day or two. However, don't expect them to ripen significantly if they're picked too early.
