<h2><strong>Casaba Turkish melon seeds</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 10 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>The Casaba melon is unique in its appearance, thus once identified it is easily recognized. It has an ovoid to round shape that comes to a point at its stem end. When ripe its skin will be a golden yellow with hints of green throughout. Its thick rind has irregular, shallow furrows running from end to end. The creamy pale green to white flesh is mild and sweet in flavor with nuances of Asian pear. Unlike other muskmelon varieties its aroma is very subtle and its skin is void of the typical netting.</p> <p><strong>Seasons/Availability</strong></p> <p>Casaba melons are available summer through the early winter.</p> <p><strong>Current Facts</strong></p> <p>Botanically known as Cucumis melo var inodoras and a member of the Cucurbitaceae family, the Casaba melon is a unique variety of muskmelon. They belong to the winter melon group, which also includes honeydew melons. The winter melon classification is attributed to their growing season, their hardiness and long shelf-life. Casaba melons are a parent melon along with a cantaloupe variety to the Crenshaw melon.</p> <p><strong>Applications</strong></p> <p>Casaba melons are best utilized in fresh preparations. Its flavor will work well in both sweet and savory salads. Pureed it can be added to cold soups, smoothies, sorbets, sauces and cocktails. The Casaba melon pairs well with curry, cucumber, chilies, lime, red onion, mint, basil, coconut milk, ricotta, mozzarella and cottage cheese. An excellent keeper once ripe uncut Casaba melon will keep at room temperature for up to two weeks. Refrigerate cut up melon in a covered container up to three days.</p> <p><strong>Geography/History</strong></p> <p>The Casaba melon was introduced to the United States in the late nineteenth century when it was imported from Kasaba, Turkey. Unlike several melon varieties, the Casaba does not "slip" from the vine at maturity. The fruits are harvested by cutting the stem when the melons are reasonably mature and then held in storage until the blossom end becomes soft. </p>

When ripe its blossom end will have a slight give and when at room temperature will offer a sweet and rich melon aroma. </span></p> <p><strong>Seasons/Availability</strong></p> <p><span>Ivory Gaya melons are available in the late spring and early summer months. </span></p> <p><strong>Current Facts</strong></p> <span>A member of the Cucurbitaceae or Cucurbit family the Ivory Gaya melon is of the muskmelon species and botanically known as Cucumis melo inodorus ‘Ivory Gaya’. Also known as the Snow Leopard melon the Ivory Gaya is often referred to as an "ice box" variety melon as a result of its petite size that easily fits in a crisper drawer. This honeydew cultivator is a specialty melon and sought after for its unique exterior coloring and sweet melon flavor. </span><br /> <p><strong>Applications</strong></p> <span>Like many honeydew cultivator melons the Ivory Gaya has an exceptionally sweet flavored flesh that is ideal for fresh eating. Its petite size makes it perfect as a personal melon which can be halved and eaten as is for one. Pureed it can be used as a base for cold soups or sauces.

A vining type the Ivory Gaya melon thrives in warm sunny conditions. Sill a rather unique variety melon in California the Ivory Gaya can be found at select Asian markets, farmers markets and specialty grocers. </span><br /> <div> <div id="restaurantSlide"></div> </div> <p>Melons: <em>Cucumis melo</em><br />Watermelons: <em>Citrullus lanatus</em><br /><br />The sweet succulence of summer-ripe melons is irresistibly tempting, but the health benefits of these luscious fruits shouldn't be overlooked. Look to red-fleshed melons to fortify the heart and urinary tract. Yellow and orange flesh types provide support to the immune system, heart and vision. Green-fleshed varieties promote strong bones and teeth as well as vision health. We've selected varieties that are successful in both southern and northern gardens.<br /><br /><strong>CULTURE:</strong> All types of melons can be direct sown in warmer regions, but will yield a much better crop if started indoors about 3 weeks prior to your last frost. We recommend planting in raised beds covered with green, silver, or black plastic mulch. This method produces better yields.</p> <p><br /><strong>FOR TRANSPLANTS:</strong></p> <p>Fill 3-4 inch, individual pots with sterile seedling mix. Plant 2-3 seeds per pot. Thin the pots to the best single plant after the seedlings are well established. Grow the seedlings under dry, warm conditions until they develop at least 1 true leaf. Transfer to cold frame if you have one. Fertilize seedlings with a fertilizer such as 2-1-1 Earth Juice Grow (ZFE245). Transplant into the garden just before the plants become root bound and when the soil temperature is at least 60°F. Space transplants 3-4 feet apart in rows 5-6 feet apart. Apply 1/2 cup of our complete fertilizer dug in well around each plant.</p> <p><br /><strong>TO DIRECT SOW:</strong></p> <p>Soil temperature must be above 70°F for decent germination. Like most vine crops, melon and watermelon seeds require even moisture levels to prevent rotting. The soil should be moist to the touch. Space and fertilize as you would transplants. Watermelon seeds are less tolerant of cool conditions than cantaloupe. They are best adapted to the warmer, longer season areas of the US. In more difficult climates, the use of plastic mulch is highly recommended. Plastic mulches increase the soil temperature and air temperature close to the plants during the day, and using a floating row cover like Reemay or Gro-Therm can also increase your success. Monitor the temperature under the row covers on hot days especially early in the season.</p> <p><br /><strong>DISEASES:</strong></p> <p>Select disease-resistant melon varieties, as bacterial wilt and powdery mildew are common problems. Watermelons are subject to several wilts, and fungal and viral diseases. Most can be controlled with good soil management, proper rotation, garden sanitation, and by not using overhead watering methods.</p> <p><br /><strong>INSECTS/PESTS:</strong></p> <p>Control insects, especially cucumber beetles, with Pyrethrin or a floating row cover.</p> <p><br /><strong>HARVEST:</strong></p> <p>Cantaloupe will easily slip from the vine when ripe. With other melons, check the leaf where the fruit is attached to the vine. The fruit is mature when this leaf begins to yellow. Watermelons are ready for harvest when the tendril closest to the fruit is dry and brown or when the bottom side of the fruit is yellow. Melons and watermelons will not ripen off the vine. Pick in the cool of the day and chill quickly. Store melons at 35°F and 95% relative humidity. Store watermelons at 45°F and 85% relative humidity.</p> <p><br /><strong>SEED SPECS:</strong></p> <p>Minimum germination standard: 80%. Usual seed life: 3 years. Days to maturity: from date of transplanting. Add 10-15 days if direct seeding.</p> </div>

In warm climates you can direct sow melons, however starting the melons indoors is preferred, both, because the melon plants can grow well in soil that is 10-20 degrees cooler than that, is needed for best germination of the seed, and because the seeds germinate more slowly in cooler soil. Where ever you are, transplanting will probably give you the best yields in the finished crop. Remember that you will need to be very careful as to avoid transplant shock, Do not disturb the roots the best you can, also because melons need every day of sun that they can get to ripen the fruit so they can not afford any setbacks.</p> <ul> <li>SOW INDOORS:</li> <li>Start melon seeds indoors in a seed starting mix three weeks before the last frost date. Sow 3 seeds each in 3-inch pots. Germinate at a steady 80º to 90ºF (27-32ºC). Once the seedlings appear, lower the temperature to 75ºF (24ºC) for about a week until the first true leaves begin to emerge. Thin to one plant per pot with scissors. Lower the temperature to 65º-70ºF (18-21ºC) and reduce watering for another week.</li> <li>Days to Germination: 3-5</li> <li>DIRECT SOW OUTDOORS:</li> <li>When the soil temperature reaches at least 70ºF(21º)C, and after any danger of frost is past.</li> <li>Sow 2-3 Melon seeds every 16", in a row, and cover ½" to ¾" deep in late spring, after any danger of frost.</li> <li>Soil temperature should be 80-90º F(27-32º)C.</li> <li>Cooler temperatures can cause the melon seeds to rot.</li> </ul> <p><strong>GARDEN HINTS:</strong></p> <p>A warm-weather crop that should not be planted too early in the spring.</p> <p><strong>Growing</strong></p> <ul> <li>pH range: 6.0-7.0 where 6.0 is the absolute minimum, production drops below this.</li> <li>Growing soil temperature: 70-85º F (21-29º)C.</li> <li>Spacing in beds: 16" (40cm)</li> <li>Watering: Moderate and even from germination to hardening off, low for one week prior to transplanting, moderate again from transplanting until fruit is full-sized, low or none during ripening of fruit.</li> <li>Light: Full sun</li> <li>Nutrient requirements: N=low, P=high, K=high</li> </ul> <p><strong>Rotation considerations:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Avoid following cucumber, pumpkin, and summer and winter squash.&lt;.li&gt;</li> <li>Good Companions: Corn</li> <li>Bad Companions: Potato</li> </ul> <p><strong>USDA Hardiness Zone -First Frost Date- Last Frost Date</strong></p> <ul> <li>Zone 1 -July 15th -June 15th</li> <li>Zone 2 -August 15th- May 15th</li> <li>Zone 3 -September 15th May 15th</li> <li>Zone 4 -September 15th May 15th</li> <li>Zone 5 -October 15th April 15th</li> <li>Zone 6 -October 15th April 15th</li> <li>Zone 7 -October 15th April 15th</li> <li>Zone 8 -November 15th March 15th</li> <li>Zone 9 -December 15th February 15th</li> <li>Zone 10 -December 15th January 31st (sometimes earlier)</li> <li>Zone 11 -No frost. No frost.</li> </ul> <p>An old garden myth would suggest pinching off a vine’s growing shoots as melons start to ripen to cause the plant to divert all its energy to the ripening fruit. Research has proven this FALSE. The vine needs all its leaves to produce the sugars that sweeten the fruit. Anything that reduces the total number of leaves available for sugar production reduces melon sweetness.</p> <p>The more fruits that ripen at the same time, the less sweet they will be, this is TRUE, since the vine will have to divide the leaves’ sugar production between fruits. In warmer climes with a long growing season, experienced growers often prune off all but one newly forming melon every 2 weeks. Ripening 1 melon at a time yields maximum sweetness. As you gain experience, you will develop your own technique.</p> <p>In colder regions, remove any blossoms that start to develop within 50 days of your area’s first average frost date. This ensures remaining, larger fruits will ripen before frost.</p> <p>The key to a sweet melon is lots of sugar, which is made by the leaves. So anything that hurts the leaves also hurts the quality of the fruit.</p> <p><strong>GROWING CONDITIONS:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Melons are sensitive to drought throughout the season, but especially from transplanting to fruit set. To get fruits of the proper size, water evenly but not too much, as too much water when fruits are enlarging can diminish flavor.</li> </ul> <p>If possible, avoid overhead watering. Soaker hoses deliver water directly to the soil, preventing possible spread of fungus diseases on wet foliage. If you must use a sprinkler, then water vines very early in the morning so that leaves can dry early, which helps prevent fungus diseases.</p> <ul> <li>Melons grow quickly and sometimes outgrow the nutrient reserve in the soil if this happens your leaves will be light green, so to correct this use a complete organic fertilizer like fish emulsion or kelp from the time of transplant to fruit set.</li> <li> </li> <li>Plant in rich well-composted soil. Before the vine spread applies mulch to control weeds.</li> <li>For vines running on the ground, keep fruit from direct contact with soil to prevent rot and protect the fruit from pests and rodents. Place ripening fruit on mulch, upturned coffee cans, or flowerpots. If large critters such as groundhogs discover your melons, protect ripening fruits by covering them with plastic milk crates or similar boxes weighted down with a few bricks.</li> <li>After transplanting in spring you can cover plants with floating row covers to exclude insects and trap warm air near plants; this is most important in cooler climates but is useful everywhere to keep certain pests off the plants. Vines bear male and female flowers. Male flowers open first, joined by female blossoms about a week later. Female flowers have a small swelling at the base of the flower. When vines start to bear male and female flowers, remove row covers.</li> </ul> <p><strong>HARVESTING TIPS</strong></p> <p>It is normally pretty easy to tell when most vegetables are ripe, however, melons require a little more practice to get it right. A good tip to know is that all the fruits on any individual melon plant will ripen over a short period of time. When one melon is ripe, the remaining melons are not far behind.</p> <ul> <li><strong>MOST MELONS</strong> (with the exception of Watermelons) are ripe when the rinds change from a gray-green to yellow-buff color. The fruit is firm but with gentle thumb pressure, you can easily separate the stem from the vine.</li> <li> </li> <li><strong>WATERMELONS: </strong>Gauging when to pick a watermelon is a combination of science and tradition. Here are the most popular ways to determine when your watermelon is ripe.</li> <li>The tendril nearest to the fruit will turn from green to brown.</li> <li>The underside of the melon, where it sits on the ground is yellow.</li> <li>When you rap it lightly you will hear a low pitched thunk or thump instead of high pitched ping. Try this out on a few that are NOT ripe so you can tune your ear to the sound.</li> </ul>
