early harvest melons

Actually, I don't really want to grows melons, I can get them really cheap here. However, what I buy is not always sweet. One of my missus friend is a keen gardener, she recommended her to grow our own melons, not every melons but the melon from special hybrid melons which are disease resistant and early harvest. That sound good Right? I gave it a go. I'm impressed by the results the fruits are sugary sweet, verry easy to grow and ready for harvest within 12-16 weeks. I wish Sis Ann and Dang get the same results. Hey, I forget to tell you guys what melons are they, they are Rock melon and Water melon.

Eventhough I impress with the rock melons taste, I still want my melons to be bigger, each of my melons weight around 700 gm which is small. This season I've got 5 fruits out off two plants . That was not bad, if I have less fruits I might have bigger fruits instead.

Water melons which I grow are a small fruit type of water melon. I don't know , whether they are sweet or not, haven't tried them yet.

I had picked one of the rock melons before while it was still green yet it was fragrant . I halfed and tasted it. It was crispy and sweet. this morning I picked them when they are yellow to get a better sweetness. Now inside my house is filled with Rock melon aroma.

I'm not sure about using seeds from the fruits to grow for the next season plants. Someone says that they will not come out the same. Anyway, I leave heap of bought seeds that are enough for me to grow for the next two years.

The packages I have shown, are imported from the UK, Members who live in EU, would not be hard to find them. In Japan, you guy have a better one to grow anyway. Members in Thailand, I know that two of the web members grow them, I can wait to see their result. After all, I have been showing off my melons, I want the people who get the same seeds, have the same result!!!

See you next blog!
