Best melon I have grown
Planted July 15. It was mostly 100 degrees plus for 60 days then cooler, First picked at 72 days. Readily detaches from vine. Mostly about 4 pounds. Sweet juicy, soft but not mushy scoops easily with a spoon. Will definitely plant more next year.

Delicious melon
Really delicious. One of the best melons I've had, made even better because I grew it myself. Will be a yearly grow for me.
