HOW TO GROW FROM SEEDS ASH GOURD
Seeds for Ash Gourd are easy to grow. We will send you healthy seeds. Then you need to sow them 2.5-5cm deep in good soil in groups of four seeds. As a general rule, groups should be spaced 100-150cm apart, with rows 250cm apart. A little water every day is enough. When leaves appear on the Ash Gourd creeper, thin seedlings to 5 cm or 7 cm in each group, keeping their fruits off the ground, Ash Gourds grow well on trellises and supports. Seedlings can be planted in trays, in pots, or on the ground.

The Ash Gourd Seeds I ordered looks very good quality and the packaging was very good. There was a small bag of flower seeds included. It was a very nice surprise and much appreciated:) Thank you for good service!
This online shop has everything you could possibly need for your gardening needs. Their seeds are top-notch and I've had great success with them.
Super fast delivery to me in Ireland, plus they included a little surprise for me, a packet full of all the different mixed tomato seeds, and it turned to a very fun experience and for that I'm grateful for. It's the little things in life
I've tried other seeds online shops in the past, but I always come back to this one. Their selection, quality, and customer service can't be beaten.
