Description

Extra early mini melon with compact growth.

One of the earliest melons ever is this small Honeydew melon, introduced in 1948.

The fruits, about 10cm in diameter, grow prolifically on tendrils of up to 90cm, making them ideal for growing in pots or containers.

The flesh is thick, golden-orange and can be eaten right down to the peel.

Minnesota Midget is one of the first Fusarium-resistant melon varieties and matures 65 to 75 days after sowing.

Muskmelons give off a strong odor when ripe.

Minnesota Midget grows compact and needs about 1 square meter.

Melons do well on mulch film.

In a nice, warm summer, the pulp contains more sugar than in a cold summer.

The seeds can be sown indoors from early April at 24–28°C, directly with 1–2 seeds in the small pot (do not keep the pots too damp), or outdoors from mid-May in a warm location. Harvest in warm locations takes place from mid-July.

Possible pests: aphids, mice, mildew.
