1. Prepare the Soil:
- White long bitter gourd prefers well-drained, sandy loam soil that is rich in organic matter. Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged roots.
- You can amend the soil with compost or well-rotted manure to improve its fertility.
2. Germination of Seeds:
- Start the seeds indoors in seed trays or small pots, or you can sow them directly in the garden if the climate is warm.
- Plant the seeds about 1 inch deep and 2-3 seeds per hole.
- Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period.
- White long bitter gourd seeds typically germinate within 7-14 days when the soil temperature is around 70°F (21°C) or higher.
3. Transplant Seedlings:
- Once the seedlings have grown to about 3-4 inches tall and have a couple of true leaves, transplant them into your garden or larger pots if you’re growing them in containers.
- Ensure a spacing of about 12-18 inches between plants.
4. Provide Support:
- White long bitter gourd plants are vigorous climbers, so provide a trellis or support system for them to climb.
- You can also plant them near a fence or use stakes.
5. Sunlight and Watering:
- White long bitter gourd plants thrive in full sun, so ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight daily.
- Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water at the base of the plant to avoid wetting the leaves, as wet leaves can lead to diseases.
6. Fertilization:
- These plants benefit from regular feeding. Use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every 3-4 weeks during the growing season.
7. Pruning:
- Trim the plant as needed to encourage better air circulation and reduce disease risk.
- Remove any yellow or dead leaves.
