Planting techniques of golden towel gourd

Golden towel gourd

I am a college student village official in Hehu Village. There is a vegetable base in our village. I accidentally saw this golden gourd for the first time on TV. We haven't sold this kind of melon yet. Watching the introduction of this melon on TV, it feels really good. I also checked this information on the Internet, the planting conditions are not very harsh, and it is not very difficult to grow.

What I would like to consult is: 1. Is it possible to plant in our area? Our soil here is suitable for growing pumpkins, wax gourds and so on. The land in our village. I asked the people in the village that they belong to the night tide. Even if it doesn't rain for a long time, the land won't be too dry.

2. Is this planting feasible?

3. If you want to learn to plant, where should you go to learn?

Looking forward to the guidance of experts!
