HOW TO PLANT:

 

The preparation of seeds is the most important part of the planting process. The result depends on how you have prepared the seeds.

 

Select a warm, sunny planting location with soil that drains well. A raised garden bed ensures good drainage. Bitter melon grows best in rich, sandy or loamy soil with an average pH level of about 6.5 but adapts to soil with a pH level as high as 8.

 

Sow bitter melon seeds directly in the selected planting location's warm soil when all danger of frost has passed. Create holes about 3/4 inch deep and spaced 20 inches apart in the soil. Drop seeds in each hole, and cover the holes with a lose layer of soil. Water the planting site well. The seeds should germinate in about one week.

 

Wait until each bitter melon seedling has four leaves, and then remove some of the young plants so that only one plant grows from where each planting hole was located.

 

Install a trellis or other support structure beside your bitter melon vines. The vines will climb on and be supported by a trellis. An alternative is to insert bamboo poles, metal pipes or wood stakes in the soil by each plant, and connect those structures to each other with string or wire, which will support the climbing vines.

 

The vines develop lateral shoots two to three weeks after sprouting.
