Juicy cantaloupe melons are typically grown from seed, started indoors or directly in the bed. In mild coastal U.S. Department of Agriculture hardiness zone 9, for example, cantaloupe is sown indoors in late March for transplanting in early May. Saving your own seed from fresh melons allows you to grow your favorite variety, but you must prepare the seed for saving in the fall and store it until the spring planting day. Starting cantaloupe indoors also requires careful preparation to prevent root damage during transplanting.
T he following table can be used to determine the appropriate time to start seeds indoors. Seed starting date is based on the last frost date. Most of the Kansas City metro area can expect a frost free date around April 15. A couple of days earlier or later as you go south or north respectively. Careful here! That means that there is still a 50% chance of frost on this date-not the best odds when your plants are on the line. We are a bit conservative here at Savvygardener.com and as a rule don't plant any tender plants outdoors until the first full weekend in May.
