Melon Honeydew

Honey Blonde is a yellow-skinned variety of honey dew that produces 3-3.5lb fruit with sweet-tasting orange flesh. This variety has good resistance to Powdery Mildew.

Harvest your honeydew melon once the rind begins to change, and it begins to smell sweet and ripe. Honeydew melons will not continue to ripen after being picked, so if you are unsure if you should harvest them, it's always safer to wait a few days. 

Melons are warm-season crops and should only be planted once the soil and nighttime temperatures are reliably warm. They grow best in full sun with fertile, light, well-drained soil and consistent moisture, especially when developing fruit. Stop watering once your melons are about a week away from being harvested.
