Granny's gone and done it again

Actually I can plant them the first week in July but to get bigger melons I should get them in the ground by June 20.

Ever plant muskmelon?

If they come from a store they are likely to be a hybrid for disease resistance and higher productivity. There are a lot of non hybrid still grown too. If they tell you what they are you can google and find out if hybrid or not. Disease resistance is important and some of the best tasting small melons I've raise were hybrids.

bought from a farm

This is the best tasting to us cantaloupe we ever grew. We grew them the year they were introduced by Burpee.

It's been awhile but have grown them for our own use.

I need to build raised beds out of pallets to grow both watermelon and muskmelons.
