Sweet Granite, Muskmelon

Heirloom Muskmelon | QTY: 20 Seeds | 70 Days

Here in Northern Minnesota, we’re muskmelon-challenged.  While we have no trouble growing a 100 day squash, direct seeded in the garden, muskmelons refuse to ripen.  Fortunately, not so with Sweet Granite.  This medium sized, kind of oblong, netted melon ripens outside without being on black plastic.  And it is drooling sweet, too!  Did I mention it’s early?
