Growing Instructions

Sow indoors under protection 2-3 weeks before last frost, or direct sow after last frost and when soil has warmed significantly. Provide fertile soil and plenty of space.

Melons are ripe when they slip from the vine with a gentle tug; color will deepen and fruit will become aromatic.
