Planting Instructions:

1. Seed Preparation:

   • Soak seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to enhance germination.

2. Sowing:

   • Indoors: Start seeds indoors 3-4 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep in seed-starting mix.
   • Outdoors: After the danger of frost has passed and soil has warmed, sow seeds directly into the garden. Plant seeds 1/2 inch deep, spacing them 2 feet apart in rows 6 feet apart.

3. Germination:

   • Seeds should germinate in 7-10 days at a soil temperature of 70-85°F (21-29°C).
   • Maintain soil moisture but avoid waterlogging.

4. Transplanting:

   • Transplant seedlings outdoors after the last frost when they have at least 2-3 true leaves.
   • Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions for about a week before transplanting.
   • Space transplants 2 feet apart in rows 6 feet apart.

5. Care and Maintenance:

   • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during dry periods. Avoid overhead watering to reduce the risk of disease.
   • Mulching: Apply mulch around plants to retain moisture, control weeds, and keep fruits off the ground.
   • Pruning: Not necessary, but you can pinch off the growing tip of the main vine to encourage lateral growth and more fruit production.

6. Harvesting:

   • Harvest melons when they emit a sweet aroma and the skin has turned a creamy white color.
   • The stem should easily separate from the fruit with a slight twist.

Happy Gardening!
