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.

Easy to use! No more hand cranking.
If you like the ease of an electric can opener, but don’t have room to store it or don’t want to drag it out when you need to use it, this is for you. I like a handheld can opener, but would get so frustrated trying to use it and turn the handle. This can opener is amazing and so easy to use. Just attach to can and push a button. It starts turning on its own and when it is done it stops. You lift it up and the lid comes off cleanly. It is rechargeable so need to worry about batteries. It tucks away in a drawer nicely. I bought my mom one too. She has arthritis in her hands so thought this would be perfect for her.

Smooth edges better than twisting
Works a lot better than the crank style and the counter top electric and you can use the lid to reseal the can if you don't use the whole thing.

Worked for only 4 months. Now produces metal shards. Dangerous
Pros: Can be used with one hand. I bought this to have after surgery that left me without use of one arm for a few months. The light blinks when you need to charge it. Only needs a 2-3 min charge for enough juice to open a can. Cons: IT QUIT CUTTING CORRECTLY AFTER 4 MONTHS. I now have to use both hands to hold it in place to get it to latch on to the can. It also requires a few rotations around the top to cut through the seal, resulting in METAL SHARDS! The metal shards are super sharp and almost invisible. I stabbed myself with one enough to draw blood. This is dangerous as the metal could fall into the food when pouring from the can.
