There is no better taste treat than a home-grown, vine-ripened melon. They’re not only good, but good for you being rich in vi- tamins, iron, calcium and phosphorus. Melons do best on warm sandy loam soil in full sun. They are a relatively long season crop, but northern gardeners can get a head start by planting seed in Jiffy Pots 4 to 5 weeks before outdoor planting. Plant outdoors when the soil reaches 60˚F. Sow 6 to 8 seeds in hills 4 to 6 feet apart each way. An ounce will plant about 120 hills. There is an average of 1000 seeds per ounce.
