Melons

« on: January 04, 2022, 07:49 »

I'd like to grow some melons in my polytunnel this year. I'm based in Lancashire. Any tips advice on varieties when to sow etc would be gratefully received. Thanks

I had reasonable success with 'Sweetheart' melons in my greenhouse about 10 years ago - it appears that seeds are still available...

Sow your seeds, plant your plants. What's the difference? A couple of weeks or more when answering possible queries!

I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...
