10 seeds per pack.

BOLBY is an F1 hybrid bottle gourd variety suitable for late-season sowing. It produces light-green fruits with a distinctive bulb or pear shape under suitable growing conditions.

It can be grown in rooftop gardens, kitchen gardens, grow bags, large containers and open soil beds. The vine requires fertile, well-draining soil, consistent moisture, adequate sunlight and strong climbing support.

Growing Instructions

Sowing season:
20 June to 15 August

Recommended for late-season sowing in warm-climate areas.

Sowing method:
Sow the seeds directly in the final container or growing location. Nursery preparation and transplanting are not recommended.

Soak the seeds in clean water for 4–5 hours or overnight before sowing. Sow two seeds approximately 1–1.5 inches deep.

After germination, retain the healthier seedling and carefully remove the weaker one.

Recommended containers:
Grow one plant per container. Suitable options include:

  • 12 × 12-inch grow bag

  • 11 × 10-inch grow bag

  • 12-inch clay pot or a similarly sized container

Make sure the container has adequate drainage holes.

Soil:
Use rich, soft and well-draining soil. A recommended mixture is:

50% Bhalu Mitti
50% organic matter, preferably vermicompost

Sunlight:
Provide approximately 6–8 hours of sunlight, preferably including morning sunlight.

During extremely hot weather, keep newly sown containers in bright shade. After germination, gradually introduce the young plant to direct sunlight.

Climbing support:
Install a strong bamboo, metal or net trellis at an early stage. Guide the vine upward and allow enough space for the fruits to hang freely and develop their natural bulb or pear shape.

Watering:
Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the upper soil layer begins to dry.

During rainfall, make sure excess water drains quickly from the container.

Feeding:
Mix vermicompost into the soil before sowing. During active growth, apply a suitable vegetable fertilizer according to its labelled instructions.

Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer, as it may encourage excessive leaf growth instead of balanced flowering and fruit development.

Pollination:
Male flowers commonly appear before female flowers.

If natural fruit setting is limited, hand pollination may be carried out early in the morning. Transfer pollen gently from a freshly opened male flower to the centre of a female flower.

Female flowers can be identified by the small immature fruit behind the flower.

Plant care:
Maintain proper spacing and good airflow. Remove weeds and yellow, weak or damaged leaves when required.

Protect young plants from intense afternoon sunlight during extremely hot weather. Avoid overcrowding and standing water.

Harvesting:
Harvest the fruits while they are young, tender, smooth and light green. Avoid leaving them on the vine until they become overmature.

Frequent harvesting can support the continued development of new fruits.

Important Safety Notice

These seeds are treated and intended for sowing only. Do not use the packaged seeds as food, animal feed or for oil extraction. Keep them out of the reach of children and animals.

A Quality All-Purpose/Beginner's Razor
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Black Razor
These Zomchi razors tend to have pretty good ratings, but a lot of the reviews and interest in them is from women. As someone who has been shaving with a safety razor for many years now, it's awesome to see women getting into safety razors, but girls shave differently from us guys so I wanted to write a review as a guy. *I will say it bluntly right here, if you are a guy or girl in the market for a safety razor, or are on the fence about trying one, buy this Zomchi razor right now. You won't regret it, and neither will your wallet. This razor is great value for money. Beautiful design with nice machining. Construction is very sturdy and even the threads that screw into the head into are top quality. On top of that, the razor has a black coating that will prevent rust later down the road and protect the longevity of the razor. Shaving my face, this razor gave me a really smooth, close, quick shave with a feather brand blade. I wasn't having to come back and make extra passes. It cut sideburns easily and got the difficult areas other razors tended to nick. If you try the Zomchi blades it comes with and you don't like them, there are so many other brands available with different characteristics. With the right blade this razor will be amazing for everyone. -Long story short, if you are looking for a quality razor at an affordable price that simply gets the job done, this is the razor for you.

Beautifully made.
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Fern Green Razor with Stand
If you’re trying to decide, just get this item. It’s sturdy, the color is gorgeous and it’s easy to load the blade. It does come with extras. You can also order large quantities from the company and they have a blade disposal can as well. Such a great design.

Perfect for Men and Women
Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1), Color: Rose Gold Razor with Stand
I have had this razor for about 5 years now. YES THE ORIGINAL RAZOR! The only thing I have to switch out is the blade. I bought a 100 pack razor blade and believe it or not but I haven't even gone through the whole thing. Of course after having it for so long there are a few things on it that have worn. Where you screw the head onto the handle gets stuck every so often due to the hard water. It has NOT rusted. If you are looking for something shard for that coarse hair this is it. Good for men and women!
