Ridge Gourd (Peechinga) is a vigorous climbing vine producing long, ridged green fruits with a mild, sweet flavour that are a staple in South Indian cooking. Tender and nutritious, they’re delicious in thoran, curries, stir-fries and dals. Fast-growing and prolific, the vines crop heavily in warm climates. Sow seeds in full sun in fertile, well-draining soil, provide a strong trellis to climb, water regularly, and harvest young fruits in about 55–65 days. A healthy, high-yield and easy-to-grow gourd that’s perfect for home and terrace gardens.
