Sweetest melons around, August 25, 2009
Submitted by OrangeMonkeyee from Northwest Indiana

(read all my reviews)

"These melon vines sprawl across the garden very fast and produce dozens of bright yellow flowers. Honey bees and other wasps seem to love the flowers as they're always around the melon vines. I have eaten three melons already and I planted in April. These turn a nice golden yellow in the rind and prety much fall off the vine when ready. The aroma is absolutely sweet and fragrant. Just having one of these little melons sit on the kitchen table for a day makes the house smell sweet. The taste is out of this world. It tastes like candy, but better. Golden orange flesh and thin rind make this a great choice to grow. Really easy to grow, just follow the instructions and you get a bunch of melons in less than three months. I planted four vines and have more than 17 melons that will be ripe in the next two weeks with several more smaller melons."

So sweet, August 19, 2009

"I'm a novice gardener. I wanted to try melons and chose these. It's been a tough growing season here on Long Island NY (damp and wet). These melons have done great however. The plants are showing some yellow and brown spots on the leaves, I don't know if that's normal, but the fruit is doing well. I would grow these again."

"Thes are just the absolute best melons that I have ever had in my garden! I started them from seed WAY later than usual, and I have already got about a dozen ready to pick in the next few days! And theres about 10 more baseball size ones too! That's just from 3 plants!!"

grew when others didn't, October 20, 2007
Submitted by CoffeeHeidi from Central, NJ

"I've never had any luck growing melons nor pumpkins. Since I also never have luck starting seeds indoors, these were planted directly.

All of our melons (3-4 other varieties including 2 seedlings) succumbed to powdery mildew and didn't produce a thing. But one little Sweet'n Early Hybrid hung on!

It produced 4 small fruits that were so sweet and perfect for one person. Since I'm the only one who likes melon in our family, they were a perfect match.

I will definitely plant these again.

They were grown in Zone 6 in a 4' x 4' raised bed on top of asphalt and filled with about a foot of homemade soil and shredded leaves."
