  • Growing Information

    How to Sow

    Sow your seeds directly in well composted soil or in pots for a head start and an earlier crop. Keep moist during germination.

    How to Harvest

    Muskmelons tell you when they're ripe by detaching themselves from their stems. If a light pull doesn't break them away, they aren't ready yet.
