Answer: Option A

Solution (By Examveda Team)

First picking in bitter gourd can be done after 50 - 60 days.
The crop of bitter gourd takes about 55 - 60 days from seed sowing to reach the first harvest. Further pickings should be done at an interval of 2 - 3 days as bitter gourd fruits mature very fast and turn red. The yield is usually about 60 - 100 quintal/ha.
