Gourd Cultivation Tips For Small Spaces And Pests
Experts recommend training gourd vines on trellises in compact spaces. Gourds are monoecious with male and female flowers on one vine. Prune stems at ten feet to boost fruiting and expect multiple gourds per vine. Plant varieties apart to avoid cross mixing. Pests include cucumber beetles and aphids. Dust with rotenone when vines are four inches tall and after rain. Stop dusting once blooms form, but rotenone may remain around plants. Mulch with excelsior or straw and use slats to reduce ground decay.
