Seed Treatment – Dip the seeds in the solution of Hasiru Panchagavya(1 L Panchagavya mixed with 30 – 35 L water) for 15 minutes and lay the seeds on a plastic sheet for drying. Once the seeds are dried the seeds can be subsequently planted.
How to plant – Plant the treated seeds in a small container filled with Hasiru Potting Mix to about ½ to 1 inch depth and sprinkle water cautiously. Once the seeds germinate and the saplings are about 6 to 8 inch tall, plant the saplings in the desired area. Cluster Ridge Gourd is a climbing plant and hence the vine requires adequate support system / Trellis.
Germination Time – 6 to 8 days from Sowing.
Spacing – 1 ½ feet between plants.
Watering – Plants should be watered daily preferably during early mornings which accelerate the process of photosynthesis resulting in faster growth.
