3. Selection of basin soil

Gourd roots are developed, so soil with deep soil layer, high fertility, strong permeability, and fertilizer and water conservation should be selected.

After sowing gourd seeds, you need to wait 3-4 days for watering, without fertilization. After rooting and sprouting, it is necessary to reduce the amount of watering and keep the soil slightly wet. After waiting for one month, apply nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer once and put it in a sunny place for cultivation. If the sun is too strong, you need to do a good job of sun protection.
