On the Flower Farm, we like to plant these melon transplants into our tulip beds when the tulip foliage is dying back. We always have a massive harvest of personal sized cantaloupes that we harvest ripe or green and allows to ripen in the pantry well into the fall. One of the best times of year is cantaloupe season on the flower farm! 
It is essential to start seeds indoors or in a greenhouse 2-4 weeks after the last frost date. Transplant when the plants are 5 weeks old. Optimal soil temperature for germination: 20-25°C (68-77°F). Seeds should sprout in 5-10 days.
Starting
Sow seeds 1cm (½”) deep. Set transplants 60-90cm (24-36″) apart in rows 1.5-2m (5-6′) apart.
