in the ground, in bucket
Sow in pots at a temperature of between 20 and 25°C, 6 weeks before planting. Transplant with the root ball, after the last frosts, in planting holes enriched with compost, spaced 1 m apart in all directions. Sowing in the open ground under the same conditions is possible when the soil is well warmed and outside temperatures no longer fall below 15°C.
Melons need plenty of light, water and heat to ripen and produce sweet flesh. Quite demanding, it thrives in rich, relatively well-aired soil. Reserve the most beautiful corner of the garden for them!
