Organic Wax Gourd «Thai Round»
This variety produces small size fruits, 4-7" in diameter - a size suitable for family cooking uses. Plants are vigorous in warm climates and produce many fruits per vine. White flesh is very delicious, excellent for stir-fry and winter melon soup.
Also known as: Winter Melon
How to Grow
Sow winter melon seed in the garden or set out transplants 2 weeks after the last average frost date in spring. Start melon seed indoors about 6 weeks before transplanting seedlings into the garden; start seed in biodegradable peat or paper pots at least 4 inches in diameter that can be set wholly into the garden so as not to disturb roots. (This is recommended in short growing season regions where the soil warms slowly in spring).
Winter melon seed will germinate in soil as cool as 50°F, but seed will germinate in 10 days at 65°F. Winter melons grow best in air temperatures ranging from 45° to 95°F. If temperatures exceed 90°F for several days, flowers will drop without setting fruit. Winter melons require 110 frost-free days to reach harvest and will tolerate no frost. In cool or short-season regions, grow smaller varieties that come to harvest quickest. In frost-free, warm-winter regions plant, winter melons in winter for summer harvest.
