🌞 To Full Size
Direct sow seeds 1 inch deep in hills spaced 3–4 feet apart, once soil is warm and frost-free.
💧 Water deeply and consistently, especially during flowering and fruit development.
🌾 Thin to 2–3 plants per hill to give vines room to sprawl.
✂️ Harvest when the tendril nearest the fruit turns brown and the underside of the melon turns yellow, your cue for peak sweetness!
