Momordica Charantia L. Bitter Gourd Response To Different Phosphorus Doses And Sowing Dates

The current paper aims to improve the quality and yields of bitter gourd by addition of different phosphorus doses and sowing dates. An Experiment was conducted on the response of Momordica charantia L. bitter gourd to different phosphorus does and sowing dates on the growth, yields. Four different level of treatment 0 kg ha(-1), 40 kg ha(-1), 70 kg ha(-1), 100 kg ha(-1)), comprised by 12 replicated treatment under Randomized complete block designed (RCBD). The results conclude that Phosphorus level 70 kg ha(-1) shows significantly best results, followed by 100 kg ha(-1) phosphorus treatment, while the rest levels showed moderate results. The sowing dates 10 March shows the best sowing dates for bitter gourd cultivation and the Phosphorus levels should be 70 kg ha(-1) or between 70kg ha(-1) and 100kg ha(-1), will be fallowed on the quality of the soil.
