How snake gourd seeds are sown in Raised Beds or Ridges?

In this method, channels of 40-50 cm width are prepared manually or mechanically keeping 2.0- 2.5 m distance between two channels. Seeds are sown on both the edges of channel at a spacing of about one meter. Usually, per hill, two to three seeds are sown to have optimum plant population. The vines are allowed to spread over the raised portion in between the channels. In this way, around 3500-4500 plants can be accommodated in area of one hectare.
