About -

Embark on a unique aquatic gardening adventure with Richgrow Seeds Singra (Desi Moongra) Open Pollinated Seeds, a non-GMO, heirloom variety (Trapa natans) that’s a must-have for home gardeners and farmers seeking distinctive, nutrient-packed harvests at a price that’s unbeatable! Known as Water Chestnut or Desi Moongra, this crop yields spiky, horned fruits, each encasing a single white, starchy kernel (3–5 cm wide, 10–20 grams), delivering a sweet, nutty flavor perfect for raw snacking, boiling, stir-frying, or crafting traditional Indian treats like singhara halwa or savory snacks, ready to harvest in 120–150 days. Bursting with fiber, vitamins B6, C, and minerals like potassium and manganese, these kernels support digestion, energy, and overall wellness, making them a superfood for health-conscious cooks. The aquatic, floating plants feature triangular, serrated leaves and are resistant to pests like water snails, thriving in shallow, stagnant waters (15–30 cm deep) in warm, wetland climates, ideally sown during the monsoon season (June–September) across Pan-India regions with ponds or waterlogged fields, as noted in our prior discussions on sowing seasons (April 10, 2025). Sow 2–3 seeds at a 2–3 cm depth in muddy, nutrient-rich soil (50% pond soil, 30% compost, 20% sand, pH 6.0–7.5) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 30–50 cm apart after soaking seeds for 24 hours to boost germination (10–15 days). Maintain stable water levels, avoid strong currents, and enrich with organic decomposed manure every 3–4 weeks, using neem oil for pests like leaf-eating beetles. Harvest brown, floating fruits with gloves to handle their spiky shells safely, and store kernels in water or dried for excellent shelf life, keeping unopened packets in a cool, dry place for up to 3 years. Choose from Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (10–15 seeds) for small containers, Standard Packet for home ponds, Professional Pack (200–250 grams) for commercial farms, or custom bulk orders, all packed in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets ensuring an 85% germination rate with detailed planting guides. Seed quantity may vary by variety, aligning with your eco-friendly, customer-compelling vision for www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com, where nature-inspired packaging (green, brown, white, per your logo) enhances appeal. Note: Cook kernels for optimal flavor, as raw ones can be hard. Disclaimer: Yields vary by water quality and care; consult local aquatic gardening resources for best results.
