How do I sow cucamelons under cover?
To sow cucamelons under cover, it is advisable to start by preparing cups filled with light, well-drained potting soil. Cucamelons like a sunny spot and fresh, fertile soil. They can be sown as early as April. Place the seeds about 1 cm deep in the pots and water lightly. Maintain a constant temperature of around 20°C to encourage germination. Cucamelons are sensitive to frost, so it's best to plant them outdoors from May-June, once the risk of frost has passed. After transplanting, water the plants regularly and mulch the soil to keep it moist. Cucamelons can be climbers, so it is advisable to stake them to guide them. By following these tips, you'll be able to enjoy delicious cucamelons all summer long.
