Coccinia grandis
Also known as: Scarlet Ivy Gourd, Tindora, Kowai Fruit

This climbing vine is originally native to East Africa and has been introduced to Australia, the Caribbean, southern USA and the Pacific region. Young stems are annual and herbaceous, but can become perennial and woody with time. It will flower from August to September. The species is dioecious (individual flowers are either male or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant so both male and female plants must be grown if seed is required). and is pollinated by Insects. The plant is not self-fertile. It can become invasive in some places. The smooth and thin-skinned fruit turns red when fully ripe, and are only about 6cm long and 3.5cm wide.

Young leaves and long slender stem tops are cooked and eaten as a potherb or added to soups. Young and tender raw green fruits are used in salads or cooked and added to curries etc. Ripe and raw scarlet fruit are fleshy and sweet.
The juice of the roots and leaves is considered to be a useful treatment for diabetes. The juice of the stem is dripped into the eyes to treat cataracts. The leaves are used as a poultice in treating skin eruptions. The plant is laxative. It is used internally in the treatment of gonorrhoea. Aqueous and ethanolic extracts of the plant have shown hypoglycaemic principles. We cannot take any responsibility for any adverse effects from the use of plants. Always seek advice from a professional before using a plant medicinally.

Succeeds in most soils but prefers a sunny sheltered position in a humus-rich sandy soil. Dislikes clay soils. Suitable pH: acid, neutral and basic (alkaline) soils. Keep the plant well watered in the growing season. USDA zones 8-11.

This offer is for 20 seeds.

Time release.. ONLY way to go
Used this brand before... when refill needed, came back for more. Time release is the best way to go as it works all night. Not one big hit when you 1st go to sleep... A nice "hit"... to get you to sleep and then a slow release of the rest, to KEEP you asleep... Don't think you'll be disappointed. I use sustained release with any vitamin/supplement I take (assuming the company makes it) .. including this. It's the best way to allow your body to utilize the product.

A subtle sleep enhancer.
Melatonin, in my experience, is a very subtle drug. I took it for about a month and then stopped before I actually saw what it was doing. It allowed me to fall asleep quicker and when I woke up during the night, to fall back asleep quicker as well. No more tossing and turning. I prefer the timed release version since I tend to sleep about 4-5 hours straight and then wake up sporadically after that. I had been buying the timed release from GNC but this brand is much cheaper, more pills, and just as effective. I've also tried popping another one after that initial 4-5 stretch of sleep to further prolong sleepy time, but I don't know how effective that is. It doesn't put you to sleep, so there's no grogginess when you wake up. It just jump starts the natural process.

Time release is the best way
I like these time released tablets. Time release is surprisingly hard to find unlike the immediate release style tablets. Time release allows for a longer sleep pattern as it enters the blood stream slowly over time allowing it to stay in you system. Immediate release will hit you hard and fast but your body will metabolize within a couple of hrs leaving you without the melatonin in you system. I took off a star for being pricey, but these do work very well.
