Sweet Melon 'Ananas'

50 seeds

1. Sow Indoors/Outdoors: Start seeds indoors 4–6 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors after the frost has passed. Plant seeds 1 inch deep in rich, well-drained soil.

2. Germination: Keep the soil moist and expect germination in 7–10 days at 70–85°F.

3. Light: Provide full sun for optimal growth and fruit production.

4. Watering: Water consistently, especially during fruit development, but avoid overwatering to prevent rot.

5. Spacing: Thin seedlings to 18–24 inches apart to allow plenty of room for the vines to grow.

6. Harvesting: Harvest when the melon starts to slightly crack at the stem and the aroma becomes more pronounced, usually 70–90 days after sowing.

Sweet Melon 'Ananas' is perfect for gardeners looking for a tropical-flavored melon that thrives in warmer weather and provides a refreshing, sweet treat.
