Here is the first short summer, Piel de Sapo type melon. Single serving size (1.8 kg) with juicy, cruchy, fragrant and sweet flesh. Its taste ressembles that of the honneydew with a delicious tangy note. Healthy, rambling, dark foliage.
Green Thumb
Cultural practices : sow indoors in early spring. After about six weeks and when there is no more risk of frost on the ground, harden the seedlings and plant them in the garden.
Soil : they like well-drained, fertile soil with a pH between 6.5 to 7, rich in organic matter, with a high level of humus and nitrogen.
Spacing : place the seedlings in small hillocks 1 m apart, in rows spaced 1 m to 1.5 m apart.
Growing tips : Protect them well from wind and cold in bells or plastic tunnels, until they are well established. Choose a warm site, in full sun.Pinch off the ends of the stems for faster ripening.
Harvest : when the honeydew melons have a sweet scent and their stems break easily, they are ready to be harvested.
