วิธีการปลูก
Water Needs: Short ridge gourd requires consistent moisture. Water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist, particularly during dry periods, but avoid overwatering to prevent waterlogging.

Sunlight Needs: Full sun (6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily). Short ridge gourd thrives in warm, sunny conditions essential for its growth and fruit development.

Time to Germinate: 7-14 days.

Seed Soaking: Soaking seeds overnight can enhance germination rates but is not strictly necessary.

Tray/Pot Recommendations: Start seeds in seed trays or small pots with good drainage. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into larger pots or directly into the garden. Provide a trellis or support for climbing.

Space Requirements: Space plants 30-45 centimeters apart. Ensure there is adequate support for the vines to climb and spread.

Temperature Requirements: Short ridge gourd grows best in warm temperatures between 20-35°C. It is a tropical plant and requires consistently warm conditions for optimal growth.

Best Growing Season: In Thailand, short ridge gourd can be grown year-round. Planting during the cooler months (from October to February) may support better growth and yield.

Time to Harvest: 60-90 days. Harvest the fruits when they are young and tender for the best flavor and texture. Overripe fruits become fibrous and less suitable for culinary use.
