Citrullus lanatus (Watermelon) Cream of Saskatchewan
Citrullus lanatus (Watermelon) Cream of Saskatchewan
A reliable, early special melon.
The fruits, which weigh around 2-3 kg, have only a thin peel and contain white, creamy and aromatic pulp that is very reminiscent of ice cream.
Originally introduced to Canada by Russian immigrants, it has been popular for many decades and can be cultivated reliably even in cooler conditions.
Best quality when it is freshly harvested from the garden and brought directly to the table.
The harvest success and the sugar content of the fruits depend on warmth and sun. Melons need a warm location.
Melons grow moderately and require around 1-2 square meters per plant.
Melons enjoy a mulching film.
In a nice and warm summer, the pulp contains more sugar than in a cold summer.
The seeds are sown indoors from the beginning of April at 24-28 ° C directly with 1-2 seeds in the small pot (do not keep the pots too moist) or from mid-May outdoors in a warm location.
Possible pests: lice, mice, powdery mildew, mildew, viral diseases.
Supplied as raw (normal) seed.
