The relatively small melons typically weigh 5 pounds or more, growing off plants that can stretch to a width of 5 feet. The fruit itself is noted for its succulence and sweetness, and is virtually synonymous with backyard barbeques, endless sunny afternoons, and all other summer rites. How to Plant CantaloupeCantaloupe grows best in warm temperatures with plenty of space between each plant (at least 18 inches apart). Opt for a spot with full sun and nutrient-rich, acidic to neutral soil with good drainage. Adding compost to the soil will help increase the nutrients for young plants to become established. Harvesting CantaloupeHarvest time differs by cantaloupe variety, so be aware of the growth requirements for your particular plant. There are a few key signs that the fruits are ready for harvesting. First, the outside will turn from green to tan. There also should be a crack in the stem where it attaches to the fruit, and the fruit should easily twist off the vine. Fruit that falls off the vine on its own is typically overripe while fruit that\u2019s difficult to remove likely needs more time to ripen. Gently twist the ripe fruit off of the stem to harvest. Be careful not to disturb the rest of the vine where fruits are still developing. You can store uncut fruits at room temperature for about a week. Cut fruit should be stored in the refrigerator, where it will be at its best for a few days. Gardening for happiness!
