The red-fleshed American pineapple melon is an old, productive variety that does not require pruning, producing fruits averaging 300 to 500 g with firm, fragrant, juicy, and sweet red flesh.

How to successfully sow melons

Sowing melons in pots

Melons need a lot of heat (between 24 and 35°C) and light to germinate. The temperature during the day should therefore be within this range and not drop below 15°C at night. Ideally, you should sow your melon seeds in a warm frame or heated greenhouse in March/April and replant them in the garden after the risk of frost has passed, i.e., in mid-May.
Sow 2 or 3 seeds (point down) per pot filled with fine seed compost at a depth of 1 cm. Water regularly to keep the compost moist (but not soggy) with a sprayer. Place next to a window or in full light. Once the seedlings have emerged, the need for light is even greater, so make sure to place them in a very sunny spot.
Remove the weakest plants and keep only the most vigorous ones.

Melon sowing in place

Another solution, more reserved for residents of the south of France or in a Mediterranean climate, is to sow directly in the ground.
Space each future melon plant 80 cm to 1 m apart, place 2 to 3 seeds per pocket (1.5 cm deep) and cover with a mixture of sifted garden soil and mature compost. Protect the seedlings with a cloche or a frame at the beginning of the growing season. Keep only the best-looking plant.

Melon Plantation

Depending on the region, you can plant young melon plants in the garden between April and mid-June. We recommend keeping a plastic tunnel at the beginning of the growing season to provide more heat. If you don't live in the south, we strongly recommend using a heated greenhouse for growing melons and watermelons. Make sure to keep a spacing of 80 cm to 1 m between each plant.
Melons thrive in a warm, sunny location, and rich, deep soil rich in potash. Feel free to loosen the soil a little before planting and add a little compost.

Vegetable Garden Association

In the vegetable garden, melon will get along well with most vegetables, except cucumber and squash.

Melon Culture

It should be noted that the new varieties do not require pruning, except for topping (cutting the head). As soon as the plant has formed 4 or 6 leaves, the main stem is pruned: this allows for rapid branching and greater fruiting.
Watering should be regular but limited; flooding your crops would diminish their taste. Do not wet the foliage when watering, as this may cause powdery mildew to develop.
Weed in the weeks following planting to avoid competition, then mulch when the soil is warm, at the end of June or beginning of July.
Remove the leaves that hide the fruit, in fact, the fruit must receive maximum sunlight.
Place wooden boards or tiles under the fruit to protect it from soil moisture and to provide extra warmth.

Melon Harvest

Harvest the fruit about 2-3 months after transplanting it into the garden. Note its color, which generally fades, and its stalk, which should appear to begin to peel off effortlessly.
You will also smell its fragrance more pronounced.
Do not store it in the refrigerator, as this will destroy its delicious aroma. Fully ripe fruits can be identified by the small crack around the stem, a sign that the melon will soon detach.

Melon Diseases

Melons are very susceptible to cucurbit mildew, leaf spot, and powdery mildew. It is imperative to avoid watering the foliage at the end of the day, especially during hot, humid weather (during summer storms), as mildew contamination occurs on damp foliage. At the end of the season, you can install a tile or board under each melon to protect it from moisture.
The main pests are aphids and seed flies. To avoid fly infestations, plant when temperatures are high enough to allow rapid plant growth.

Good product.
I will probably give this product a better review when I use it in the spring. I have used it before and gave it 5 stars. Will have to see how it performs on prepping the surface of my motor home since I have "waxed" it with Poly Glo.

This will work but prep is key!
I have an older RV that the gelcoat has dulled and is oxidized, but otherwise in good shape. I have buffed and polished in the past only for it to last a short time. I was looking up different products to try and this one has such good reviews, I thought I would give it a try. I bought the kit with the Poliglow and the Poliprep, with the scrubber and the microfiber glove. I started with the poliprep and it did a great job of gettting the streaks and black marks off. You spend a lot of time scrubbing to your likeness because anything that is still on the gelcoat when you apply the poliglow, it will be locked in there. The Poliglow is like a clearcoat that goes over the gelcoat. You have to build up layers and here are some of the tips and tricks I figured out that really helped my finished RV look great. First, make sure the applicator stays damp, this keeps the poliglow more uniform across the glove. Also, stick it in a zip lock bag when not using, you do not want it to dry out while you are using it. I found out that applying this in direct sunlight in warm temps, is the best method. This allows the poliglow to dry really fast. The first 3 or 4 layers will look streaky and dull but this is ok and as you build up the layers, the shine will come back. I found if you do this when its cooler, the layers do not dry as quick and you will get some permanent streaking or running. I had to remove a section I did in the evening because I noticed this. When in direct sunlight, this gave me the best results with no streaking or running. It dries fast and you can keep working. Like it says, do not do big sections at a time, keep it to small what you can reach sections and build those up and move on. As far as how much to buy? I have a 40 ft toy hauler and I got to kits and I had just enough to finish the whole thing minus the nose cap. I have Durabak on the nose cap, so I dont need to worry about that. I ended up buying one more bottle of the poliglow to have for my maintenance coats. Overall, I am pleased with how my 10 year old RV looks and other than some of the decals show age, it looks new again. If I were to buy a new RV, I would put this on right away and preserve the whole RV including the decals. Its not too expensive and its a lot of work, especially the prep, but it does end up with great results.

Excellent shine
Excellent line of products. Looking at the picture, you can see what the camper looked like before the Poli Glow. To the left of the window is the after Poli Glow. It takes some elbow grease (follow instructions well) but well worth it.

One bottle covered my 20ft camping trailer 4 coats and with a little remaining for future touch ups. It definitely increases the gloss. I'm glad I didn't waste my time with wax. This is like an easy wipe on clear coat. I will report back in the future for longevity.
