The fruiting time of potted Hami melon is 1 and 5- 10 months.
The fruiting time of potted cantaloupes is generally around May-10 every year. This is because different varieties of cantaloupe need different time to mature. Early-maturing cantaloupes can grow and mature at the end of May, while late-maturing cantaloupes need 10 months to fully mature.
2. Growth cycle
Generally speaking, the growth cycle of Hami melon is about 90- 120 days, that is, it usually takes about 3-4 months from the survival of planted seedlings to the final harvest of fruits, but this time is not fixed and will change according to external factors such as growth substrate, application of water and fertilizer, and temperature change.
3. Characteristics of potted plants
Potted plants, due to limited root extension, limited contact with soil and small nutrient area, will make their growth rate slightly slower than those planted underground, and potted soil generally lacks various trace elements, which will also directly affect the fruiting speed of cantaloupes.
4. Fruit quality
Generally speaking, the later the cantaloupe matures, the better its fruit quality will be, because the quality of cantaloupe basically depends on the amount of nutrients and sugar in its fruit, while the late-maturing cantaloupe has more time to accumulate nutrients and sugar, so its quality will naturally be better.
