What you need to know to Plant & Grow
For best results, select a south-facing, wind-sheltered site for your melons.
Planting: Sow 5 seeds 2.5 cm deep per hill. Space hills 1.5-2 m apart. Once seedlings are established, thin to 3 to 4 plants per hill. In short-season areas, start seeds indoors in peat or paper pots 4 weeks before your planned transplant date. Seeds need a warm soil to germinate properly; do not sow into soil cooler than 21°C. Germination occurs in 8-14 days.
Care: A packet of hybrid melon contains 10 seeds, enough for 2 hills. Keep the melon vines evenly watered throughout the growing season.
