• Use nitrogen in small, regular doses for strong vine growth.
• Apply phosphorus and potassium during flowering for better fruit formation.
• Use micronutrients like calcium, zinc, and boron to improve fruit shape and shine.
• Foliar sprays at 10–15 day intervals enhance yield of commercial lauki seeds.
• Balanced nutrition reduces disease pressure and increases picking duration.

Common Diseases & How to Prevent Them

• Bottle gourd is sensitive to viral diseases during humid weather.
• Use clean hybrid seeds and proper field spacing to reduce infection spread.
