Gardener’s Notes: Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last spring frost or sow directly outdoors when night temperatures are above 50°F (10°C). Best to grow in rows in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Train on a tall trellis or fence to save space and keep fruit clean and easier to pick. Bitter gourds are best harvested when the fruits are young, firm, and a bright, glossy green before they begin to ripen and turn yellow or orange.
