Cantaloupe (Muskmelon) Seeds

American cantaloupes, or muskmelons, have netted skin and sweet, orange flesh. They slip from the vine when ripe, which makes harvest timing easy. Halona is early and very sweet. Sarah's Choice is a favorite for flavor, and Triton, Divergent, and Milan are vigorous hybrids. Many resist powdery mildew and Fusarium wilt. Start plants inside about four weeks before transplanting into warm soil. Keep them watered evenly until the fruit sizes up.
