Description

Cantaloupe melon Round fruit with orange flesh and gray skin Very aromatic 1 - 2 sqm per plant Melons require a high amount of water to grow optimally. Never allow the soil to dry out completely. Adequate nutrient supply is especially important for the growth of melon plants. Before planting out the young plants, first work a primarily organic fertilizer During flowering and fruiting, apply a new dose of fertilizer so that the plants have enough strength for the development of large and sweet fruits.

Growing tips

A proven care measure to increase the yield is the so-called de-tipping. This involves cutting off the main shoot of a melon plant after the fifth leaf. This causes the plant to produce more side shoots, which can also be cut off at the tip. This method encourages the plant to produce more fruit. If you also remove the tip a little above the growing fruit, more energy is left for the growth of the melon. Nevertheless, make sure that you do not grow more than five melons per plant so that the existing specimens get enough energy and nutrients.
