how the container size should be?and how to prepare soil?

what is the best time to plant these?

Hi. how many plants r there in that container of yours... I've started with two plants in a pot...Will that be adequate to give fruits..

Nice nice from a different perspective, I just buy the "mini" ones from the store and slice them with rind and seeds and fry them for sandwiches or omelets, I like them not for the taste but for the bennefits

That's the forst time I have seen one peeled.

Hello I have also grown bitterguard plant at my home many bitterguards started growing but most of them is getting yellow what can I do to avoid this?

Beautiful bro...

Which variety is shown in the video? Do you ever have to self pollinate? Thank you.

I live in Houston TX. it's to late to grow this year,to hot,but next year be ready. I easy took a 50 gallon rubber made plastic trash can. To catch all MY,MY ac drip water,No fluoride. It fill up every week and most of the time the ac is turn off. I have 2 PVC pipes,1'' inch or 3/4 has a valve to open or close,and a run off valve. The PVC pipe is 10 ft. I have it run 25 ft. from the back of my house. It's seat on a 20 x 20 ac block to look nice. The led top,has a cut circle on top,simple.

Tro dat in some mongo bean! Good stuff! Thanks for this video.

Thanks for your video and for you who didn't know . While your waiting for your melons to grow you can eat the leaves as well . Just take off 3-5 leaves and blend it up with a little water. Then add the mixture to more water and drink away . It will taste better the first couple of times but after that you'll get used to the taste and it also lowers your blood pressure and sugar . You can also add leaves to dishes you would normally use the melons for . The leaves are just as bitter as the melons .

EXCELLENT video! Thank you so much for the information given here!

This variety of a bitter melon is typically Indian, but the ones we use in Asia are those that are far more bigger, they have a "better" taste, and we don't scrape the outside, we love the "bitter" taste of it!

Hi , can u help me I have planted better melon in my garden flowers are coming n falling but not developing what should I do

u didnot show full cooking .plz do it . u r from india me too .that is why ur language is simple thank u soooo much.

it grows better on the ground

we here in india don't peel bitter gourd (karela), that bitter part you removed also has some needy vitamins in it..try sometimes without peeling.

I heard the darker seeds are best for planting. I use them on smoothies with yogurt and fruit.

I have kept the seeds. what color is best

I mean call me Kai
