20+ Long Bottle Gourd Seeds Edible Asian Indian Opo Squash Dudi Calabash Long Melon

Took a while to break through but typical for opo. Most seeds planted grew. Got some good vines growing.

Wow, my mother is Vietnamese and we love to eat these in soups. I have two vines and they started off a bit slow but wow do they have fruit, I’ve counted over 14 and growing, within days they are ready to harvest, quick growers. I sowed 8 seeds and 2 germinated but I believe that is common with this type of gourd. While my honey dew were attacked by squash vine borers these seem to be fine and they are side by side. Hoping they are of no interest to those pests, If so these are a winner!! Thank you!

3 out of 3 times that I planted, it fruit early and plant started dieing. Fruit did not have the chance to develop all the way cause it died halfway through development. Pretty disappointed cause I really looked forward to a full growth and harvest

70% germination, rest rotted despite excellent greenhouse conditions

Package was handed to my boyfriend which was nice. Small yellow envelope where seeds are enclosed. Seeds look healthy. Can’t wait to plant in the spring and get amazing fruits!

This is a good product

If you like bottle gourds, please give this a try. We were late in planting, but we got there in the end. Three plants were successful; two in garden, one in a pot. But once they started to grow, they spread like crazy. Note, this is a vine, so it will spread. Right now it's taken a portion of our deck and is encroaching on the other plants. But it's fruitful, if you put in the effort. Note, this plant has both male and female flowers. If you want successful fruits, you will need to break off the male flowers and have them touch the female flowers directly for pollination. Besides the fruit, you can also eat the leaves; just wash well as it gives off a soapy residue. The only negative was fighting the caterpillars and the cucumber beetles, but they can be managed by visiting your local store to get repellents. Good luck!

Got this seed for this summer and harvested 34 bottle gourd till now it’s thriving ❤️
