DELICIOUS CANTALOUPE MELON (Cucumis melo), is probably the most widely grown home garden cantaloupe. That is because it is one of the best and easy to grow. Round, finely-netted, 3-5 lb fruits with sweet orange flesh. It is deliciouson its own, or with a slice of lime and/or prosciutto. Keeps a long time in the fridge once cut. Open-pollinated. 90 days. 10 seeds.
GROWING MELONS: Melons are heat lovers and heavy feeders, so pick a sunny spot and spend some time preparing the soil with rich compost and creating hills for the vines to trail down. Wait until soil temp is 70 degrees to direct sow, or start indoors and harden off. Keep the beds mulched with straw as weeding will become impossible once the vining gets underway. The straw will also help retain moisture in the soil and melons need lots of regular watering. Once the blossoms have set, use fish emulsion as a side dressing.
