देखभाल के निर्देश
Bitter melon requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be kept in warm, humid conditions. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil consistently moist. It thrives in moderate temperatures and high humidity. Ensure the plant has a support structure to climb on.कटाई
Momordica charantia, commonly known as bitter melon, should be harvested when the fruits are young, green, and about 4-6 inches long, typically 90 days after planting. To harvest, use a sharp knife or pruning shears to cut the fruit from the vine, leaving a small portion of the stem attached. It is important to harvest regularly to encourage continuous fruit production. Avoid letting the fruits over-ripen on the vine, as they can become too bitter and may split open, reducing their market value and culinary quality.मिट्टी
Bitter melon prefers well-draining loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be kept consistently moist but not waterlogged. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal for this plant.उर्वरक
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant every few weeks during the growing season to support its vigorous growth and fruit production.पुनःरोपण
Repotting is generally not necessary for bitter melon as it is an annual plant. However, if starting from seeds indoors, transplant the seedlings to a larger container or directly into the garden once they are strong enough and the risk of frost has passed.प्रचार
Bitter melon is typically propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly into the soil after the last frost date or start them indoors a few weeks before transplanting. Ensure the seeds are planted in a warm, moist environment to encourage germination.छंटाई
Pruning is necessary to manage the growth of the bitter melon vine. Regularly trim back excessive growth and remove any dead or diseased leaves to promote healthy development and fruit production.विषाक्तता
Bitter melon is toxic to pets and humans if consumed in large quantities. The seeds and the outer rind of the fruit contain toxic compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress. Handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of pets and children.अतिरिक्त
