Hunar SetuHunar Setu is a social initiative that connects skilled artisans and craftsmen with buyers, businesses, and communities that value their work. India’s artisans carry centuries of tradition, culture, and craftsmanship, but many of them struggle to access markets, technology, and fair opportunities. Hunar Setu was created to bridge this gap.https://www.hunarsetu.com/s/62ea2c599d1398fa16dbae0a/676523772eb3cf19c22b9674/hunarsetu1-logo-1--480x480.png

The PN variety of bottle gourd (Lagenaria siceraria) is a popular, high-yielding, open-pollinated variety developed by the National Seeds Corporation (NSC) in India.
Renowned for its fast-growing, vigorous trailing vines, it produces uniform, smooth-skinned, light green fruits with tender and highly digestible flesh.
Well-suited for both the summer (February to March) and monsoon (June to July) sowing seasons, this variety thrives best in well-drained sandy loam soil rich in organic matter with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5.
Cultivation typically requires a seed rate of 4 to 5 kg per hectare, sown at a depth of 2 to 3 cm with 2.0 to 2.5 meters between rows and 45 to 60 cm between plants.
Under good management and trellis support, farmers can achieve an impressive expected yield of 25 to 35 tonnes per hectare (around 10 to 14 tonnes per acre), provided the fruits are harvested regularly while still young and tender to encourage continuous fruit set.
