When to Plant Melon Seeds?
Melons are a must-have summer essential for all gardeners; fortunately, melon seeds can be grown in all climate zones across Australia. In tropical climates, melon seeds can be grown all year round but are best planted in the autumn during the dry season. Elsewhere in cooler climates, melon seeds should be sown in the spring to early summer in a sunny spot that gets at least six hours of sunshine.
How to Grow Melon Seeds
Watermelon seeds, honeydew, and rockmelon seeds thrive in warm soil and need plenty of moisture. Melon seeds are easy to grow and provide a rewarding fruit for the whole family. Sow your preferred melon seeds into damp soil spaced 50 cm in rows and clumps. Keep the soil well watered and mulched through the growing process, and enjoy biting into a deliciously succulent fruit grown straight from your garden. Introduce a tropical element to your fruit garden and sow some watermelon seeds this summer.
