In today's video we look at growing Ash Gourd or Winter Melon easily in grow bags. We look at growing winter melon or ash gourds from seeds, we look at how to care for your winter melon or ash gourd plants, how to harvest your winter melon or ash gourd. We also cut open a winter melon or ash gourd to show you how it looks like and how to save its seeds for the next season.
Also known as green pumpkin, the ash gourd belongs to the family cucurbitaceae in the Benincasa family of plants. Produces big sized green pumpkins that are absolutely delicious.

The seeds look like hairy or fuzzy melon. They are allowed to mature and are often confused with winter melon. I believe they are probably the same species, just a different variety.

For each plant that goes into the ground (or grow bag), does the plant only produce one gourd at a time, or multiple gourds spaced a little time apart? Or does the plant wait to produce one gourd completely at a time then start a new gourd? How do we know when they are ready to harvest? Big thanks from Hawai'i!!!

On the whole the sapling looks healthy. Is this normal? It’s been a month since sowing from seed. Does it thrive in full sun?

It has seeds so it’s technically a fruit but you would use it in cooking as a vegetable. It takes the flavour or whatever you cook it in. It’s nice in curries, chicken soup, etc.

Do you recommend a 5 or a 10 gallon grow bag to grow the ash gourd melon? Can you grow more than 1 ash gourd in a single grow bag, say 2 or 3? If I grow them in a raised garden bed, is there a recommended distance between plants when growing them in a garden space? This video was well made as you had examples ready to go at each stage of the process from seed to harvesting of the melon. Nicely done. Thank you.
