Nice video.i need to know about more of this plant.Thankyou mam. sara kerala

[@avanti4116]

Thanks for the very useful video. How many days it will take from pollinated flower to get harvest of bottle guard

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

2-3 weeks

[@amanimotto]

Question: Do you manually polinate every female flowers? Thank You.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

If you have too many of them, you won't be able to do it but it's not necessary also. Pollinators do a good job naturally. If you see that you have both types of flowers and still you are not getting any gourds, you must hand pollinate

[@manishbhardwaj5467]

Hello maam you explained very easly awosome and outstanding way very good maam keep it up :)

[@r.shankaran5314]

Thank you for your help. Now I will try it out on my bottle gaurd plant. Can spray of diluted honey on bottle gourd flowers help make bees come to it and pollinate them?pls do reply

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

It depends if you have bees in your area or if they are more attractive plants around for them in which case they will go there

[@r.shankaran5314]

@@EasyPeasyGardening Thanks for the advice.

[@rochellecoelho8601]

Thank you for the information. I ha ve a lauki plant that has grown nearly 50 feet, seems healthy but it’s not flowering yet. No male or female flowers yet, any suggestion on what might be wrong?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Does it get a lot of direct sun?

[@rochellecoelho8601]

Easy Peasy Gardening Yes, plant does get a lot of sun.

[@sunny09140]

Mine just started to produce lots of male flowers about a week ago and today I noticed 7-8 female buds with flowers on the tips. Try not to water too much or daily . Let the vine struggle a bit and it will produce flowers. Growing flowers such as sunflowers has always helped me as a lot of bees , butterflies and other bugs help with the pollination . You can also put compost or cow manure

[@samirbhowmik3639]

Exact time of doing pollinators?when I have to pollinate the female flowers....first day of flowering or 2nd day flowers are full bloom?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

These flowers open for one day only. Pollinate them when you see them open.

[@rashidabilwaniwala5223]

what about the leaves that get dry in the bottom what can i do to stop that

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

That generally happens in two conditions. Either it needs water or it's at the end of its life

[@dhavalsjani]

Thanks for inputs. Very helpful.

[@anumanikonda7835]

[@rameshpatel6560]

Hi. My plants have very few male flowers compared to female flowers. so how to pollinate all the female flowers?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

One male flower can pollinate multiple female flowers

[@majapelajic]

Great video, very useful and nicely explained!! Thanks for sharing!!

[@muzaffarbali5390]

VERY USEFUL MAM... THANKS

[@ektakotnala961]

Ma'am there are small green worms in the flowers .. what should I do ??

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

You can try spraying with diluted neem oil. One litre water plus one tsp neem oil plus one tsp soap, mix and spray every other day

[@rosidaladen8380]

[@gireendrasharma8830]

Thanks , I am gonna try it .

[@banumathimoorthy3029]

Really useful ifo Madam, Thanks

[@kingkhan1802]

What does it mean when the female fruit turns yellow and falls off before the flower even opens up?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

Probably, the flower is weak or there are some pests. Check carefully for pests and if not found, add some phosphorus rich fertilizer

[@kingkhan1802]

@@EasyPeasyGardening thanks for your reply, there are no pests and I already have 2 growing quite nicely from that vine, it's just a small few that underdevelop and die without even. The flower forming, could it be because the plant can't cope with growing 2 at the same time?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

@@kingkhan1802 yes, that happens if the plant is not that big or strong

[@nroytv]

What if there is no male flower to pollinate with? Will pumpkin flower work with bottle gourd?

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

No that will not work

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

In those cases you have to rely on natural pollinators to bring the pollen from other bottle gourd plants

[@nroytv]

[@dhamrait12]

My gourds are falling too. I noticed small dots on the small baby gourd before they fall. I was thinking maybe insects were messing it up. Will try the pollination. Can we spray water with a bit of honey to attract the bees?

Not sure

[@qa6585]

It's natural process..I guess. Farm near to cities are facing such problems and it will increase . Due to technologies impact. Bees, and other insects are disappers from cities.

The fruits of my zucchin are falling yellow and the tomato flowers are falling frightly. please suggest natural remedies to save the fruits.

Do manual pollination for zucchini and for tomatoes wait for few days, more flowers will come and pollinate

thank you it was useful

[@punitchoudhari]

Hi For some reason I just got 2 female flowers and it’s been almost 3 weeks and I have not seen a single female flower, is there anything I am missing.. I see a lot of male flowers..waiting to hear from you.

[@EasyPeasyGardening]

What kind of soil are you using? Perhaps it is not balanced.

[@ramrattan3471]

Hi Punit, if you want more female flowers and fruits then you will have to do 3G/4G cutting on these plants. You will find it on other videos just type "3G cutting on Lauki plants" and study those; it really works on my Lauki plants, I can see tons of female flowers on them now. Really Excited!!

Get you a bee hive. If u don't want to mess with. The bees find a bee keeper in your area willing Put a couple of hives on your property. Wallwa pollinators your gords my not be true to the seeds. Then you will want to hand pollinate

Bee hive is a good idea in general but not sure of it in a home garden
