Grow a productive and culturally important vegetable with Bitter Melon Seeds (Momordica charantia). Also known as bitter gourd, karela, ampalaya, balsam pear, or bitter apple, this tropical to subtropical heirloom is widely used in Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, and other Asian cuisines. The fast-growing vines produce an abundance of green, cucumber-shaped fruits with distinctive warty skin and tender flesh, typically harvested between 5 and 12 inches long.

Bitter melon thrives in hot, humid conditions and rewards gardeners with substantial yields when given full sun and proper support. In addition to the fruit, young shoots and tender green leaves are also edible and commonly used in traditional cooking.

Vigorous Growth and Heavy Yields:

  • Heat-loving vines well suited for tropical and warm-season gardens
  • Produces abundant green, warty fruits with firm, tender flesh
  • Excellent climber when grown on trellises or fencing
  • Edible fruit, shoots, and young leaves for multiple culinary uses

Why Customers Love Bitter Melon:

  • A staple crop for diverse Asian and international recipes
  • High productivity from a single planting
  • Unique flavor valued in traditional and medicinal cuisines
  • Performs well when given warmth, sun, and vertical support

How to Use / How to Grow:
Bitter melon requires warmth and humidity for successful germination and growth. Soak seeds for 24–48 hours before planting to improve germination rates. For best results, wrap seeds in a damp cloth, place them in a sealed container, and keep them warm using a heat mat. Once sprouted, plant seeds in trays under a humidity dome to maintain consistent moisture and warmth.

Transplant seedlings carefully after they develop 2–3 sets of true leaves. Gradually harden them off before moving outdoors. Choose a location with at least 8 hours of full sun per day and provide a trellis or other support for climbing vines. Water regularly and protect plants from cool temperatures, especially early in the season. In cooler climates, starting seeds early indoors helps extend the growing season.

These are dog tested and approved.
Size: 1-pack
The launcher works very well and will probably last forever unless your dog chews it up while bring it to you to get you to play, but the balls, well, they're not made for labs, that's for sure. That's the bad news. The good news is that worn out or abandon tennis balls fit the launcher just fine. Save your throwing arm. Do your dog(s) a favor. Buy this thing.

No angle for correct throwing
Size: 1-pack, Size: 1-pack
This item does not work. It is about ) inches tall. It’s tiny to bend over and pick up the ball. Has no angel for the ball to throw accurately. Ball goes downward. Would not recommend

Happy pup. Worth it.
My dog loves this thing. It takes hardly any effort to launch the ball. Flick of the wrist kinda thing. The squeaky ball is her favorite but unfortunately you can't buy this brand of ball separately. It says compatible with any 2.5 inch ball but that's not true. We have a ton of Penn tennis balls and they are just slightly too big for this launcher. You can do it but it's a huge pain and hard to throw. Another issue is that when we first got it the handle didn't want to stay screwed together. After the first day of use and having to rescrew it together multiple times, the issue seems to have corrected itself? Either way, for the price with the comfy handle, very low effort throwing for big pay off, two balls included and the crazy excitement from my dog anytime we get near the thing. It's definitely worth it. I like it much better than the chuck it and stone random cheap brand we used to have. I'm going to try one of the balls recommended in the product pictures. I'll update if they work out.
