I have sown six seeds of Melon Honeydew bought from The Seed Merchant on ebay. I have sown them in individual 3″ pots and covered with cling film. (Germination update – only one of the seeds germinated so I replaced the failed seeds and am waiting again for results.)
“Choose a site that gets full sun and good air circulation. Make sure the spot is protected from strong winds – melons won’t perform at all if they’re cold”. This is information I found on the internet and on our plot it would seem impossible to adhere to but we can but try. I want to try and grow them in the tunnel or under a low polythene shelter yet to be built. The first hurdle is to get them to germinate and form a strong plant.
