  •  The best time to sow Muskmelon Seeds is from November to march.
  •  Muskmelon is grown on the ground, open farmland or yard gardens. Seeds are sown directly on outdoor raised beds.
  •  Fertile, well-drained, sandy soil with plenty of organic manures is needed.
  •  Sow two to three seeds per pot in a spacing of 3 x 3 ft.
  •  Push the seeds a little in soil with your fingers & completely cover them with the surrounding soil.
  •  Water the sown seedbed immediately by a light shower with a watering can.
  •  Seeds will germinate within the first 6-8 days or so & tiny sprouts will be visible.
  •  Second week onwards, seedlings will start growing into small plants
  •  Three weeks after germination, only single, healthy seedlings are allowed to grow at one spot & other slow-growing seedlings are thinned out.
