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.
You want the fruit to get the air. Cantaloupes like temps at 70Â° to 80Â°F, well-draining compost/soil with a phH of 6 to 6.5, and 1 to 2 inches of water per week, ideally in the morning; about three weeks before harvesting, cut back on watering by half to a third. Fertilize every 2 to 3 weeks with a 5-5-5.antaloupe requires 35 to 45 days to mature from flowering, depending on the temperature. Female blossoms have a small swelling or bulb at the base of the flower. Keep in mind that cantaloupe blossoms have a pollination window of one day.
