Ms. Cao Thi Diep said: Bitter melons are very susceptible to insect bites during the flowering and fruiting period, so wrapping the fruit in a plastic bottle is the optimal way to protect it, without having to use pesticides. According to Ms. Diep, thanks to this method, not only bitter melons, but also other vegetables and fruits that she grows and protects in a safe way for consumers can be sold at a higher price than the usual growing method.
