10 Vine Peach (Mango Melon) Cantaloupe Seeds, Heirloom, Non-GMO, Genuine USA

Description: Test Vine Peach (Mango Melon) Cantaloupe Check out our other listings! Vine Peach, also known as Mango Melon, is an heirloom melon variety first introduced to the United States in the 1880s where it became a popular fruit for making pies, preserves, and sweet pickles. Vigorous spreading vines produce peach-sized fruits with yellow-orange rinds and white, slightly fruity yet bland tasting flesh that has a texture similar to a mango. While still best when used for pies and preserves, you might also try slicing the melon and frying it like eggplant! 70 - 80 days to maturity. Cantaloupe Germination Guide Select the soil and container in which to start your seeds. For soil, use a seed starting mix for the best results. You may also use a soil-less potting mix, which is cheaper and widely available at most garden centers. For the container, use large seedling pots or seedling trays with large openings as cantaloupe seedlings grow quite big very quickly! Fill your container with potting mix to within 1 inch of the top. Place 2 seeds on top of the soil near the center of the pot. Planting two seeds per pot is recommended in case one doesn’t sprout. If both seeds sprout, you can pinch off the smaller, weaker plant. Cover the seeds with about 1/2 inch layer of potting mix. Gently press the soil down with your fingers to ensure good contact between the seed and soil. Cover pots with plastic or a seeding dome to increase humidity and raise the temperature of the soil. Cantaloupe seeds require a soil temperature of 75°F to 85°F, so consider using a heating mat to provide the seeds warmth and speed up the germination process. Sprinkle or mist water on the seeds whenever the top of layer of soil appears dry. Be careful not to overwater! Soggy soil may cause the seeds to rot. Remove the plastic or seed dome from the the pot/trays once the seedlings have germinated. If more than one seedling has sprouted per pot, use small snips to clip off the weaker seedling. After your last frost date, plant the cantalope seedlings 36 inches apart in the garden. If more than one seedling has sprouted per pot, use small snips to clip off the weaker seedling.
