Overview

Cantaloupes are a type of melon with a tan-green rind. They are a delicious, heat-loving melon with a relatively long growing season, making them especially well-suited for southern gardeners.

Conditions

Cantaloupes do best in well-draining soil that’s a mix between loamy and sandy. Amend the soil with aged manure or compost before planting, as cantaloupes are heavy feeders. For best quality crop, provide full sun (6+ hours of direct sunlight per day). Cantaloupes also need ample vining space, so plan accordingly.

Planting

Cantaloupes are commonly planted directly in the garden once soil temperatures have reached at least 60°F. Use our grow calendar tool to find specific planting dates for your region! Seeds germinate in 7-14 days. 

Plant seeds ½" inch deep in groups of 4-6, with each group spaced 4-6 feet apart. Plant seeds in hills or hilled rows to help with proper drainage. Thin to plant per group as seedlings develop. 

Care

Row covers are a good way to keep pests like squash bugs and vine borers at bay.

While the plants are growing, blooming, and setting fruit, they need 1 to 2 inches per square foot of water (about 1.5 gallons) per week. Use a drip irrigation system or water in the morning. Reduce watering once fruits are growing, as dry weather produces the sweetest melons.

Prune vines once fruit begins to grow to ensure best quality melons.

Male flowers may arrive several weeks before females appear - don’t be discouraged when first blooms do not produce fruit. Melon flowers do require pollination, so if bees are limited you must self-pollinate flowers. 

Harvest

When rinds begin to change from green to tan or yellow, the melon is typically ripe enough to pick. Look for a crack in the stem where it attaches to the fruit. This is a sign of ripeness as well. The fruit should be easy to separate from the vine.

Best paper towel holder
Color: Silver
Very easy to put together, very sturdy and works great! Holds the paper towel with no slipping or popping off and it does not move around on the counter because of the suction cups. Very satisfied with the purchase. Bought another for the bathroom and one for my mom.

Perfection!
Color: White, Color: White
Oh my! A design so simple but so effective! I had a towel holder but when I went to pull a piece off..it would hardly budge. I use jumbo towels(triple rolls from Costco)I would have to hold it. And it would only work smoothly when the roll was down some. Then it would spin too fast!🙄 This holder..nope..the suction cups are nice and strong..and when I pulled a piece off..the spin was perfectly smooth and calculated... and you can tear off the piece perfectly You can hear the spin movement. SOOO glad I bought this..yes..it is expensive for a towel holder BUT...it does EVERYTHING its supposed to do! In my book...worth it. Do not hesitate...it's a keeper! And the white is perfect for my bathroom...blends in beautifully. But the choices are nice for any decor.

Excellent for one-handed operation
Color: Silver
This one-handed paper towel dispenser is very good quality. The suctions cups work very well on a clean, smooth surface. Has a good solid feeling while pulling off paper towels with one hand. You might have a slight learning curve on to how to pull correctly. Pull the paper towel only just far enough out that there is still good tension on the towel. Then pull the towel downward and close to the roll. A little practice will be rewarded with satisfaction of this product! Comes in so handy when you have one messy hand and only your other hand to pull off one or several towels. If pulling several sheets at once remember to pull them straight outward, then pull the last sheet downward and close to the roll. No fuss removing the used cardboard roll and replacing with a new roll. Assembly is easy. The assembly instructions aren't good quality but the parts only fit together one way. The dispenser will end up looking like a two-tier spoon carousel with the spoons hanging upside down. I would buy this as a gift for family or friends.

Sticks to the counter like superglue
Color: Silver
This paper towel holder definitely sticks to my granite countertop and wont move. I put it is a spot where that would not be a problem. If you need to move your papertowel holder daily, don't buy this one because you can barely pull it off the counter. But great product if you don't need to move.
