Crop Details
Transplant Conditions:
Wait until soil reaches 70°F
and nights stay above 55°F
before moving outdoors.
Harden off for 12 days first.
Direct sow preferred — this crop has sensitive roots and does not transplant well.
If starting indoors, use biodegradable pots and disturb roots as little as possible when moving outdoors.

Expert Note: For best sweetness and size, grow in full sun with consistent watering early, then taper off as melons begin to ripen and use black plastic or mulch to warm the soil fast.
