Cucamelons are native to Central America and are becoming a popular crop for their unique flavor and ease of growth. These plants resemble miniature watermelons and grow vigorously. They are a striking addition to any garden space and are suited for growing in USDA hardiness zones 7 to 13. Cucamelons are grown as an annual in cooler regions.
Begin by planting cucamelon seeds indoors about 4 to 6 weeks prior to the last expected frost or direct sow outside once the soil has warmed. Plant them ½ inch deep, transplanting outside when the weather is stable. Space 12” apart in a sunny location and keep consistently moist.
Cucamelons are relatively low-maintenance plants. They need minimal care once they are established. Cucamelons prefer regular watering but are tolerant to drought, thriving with occasional deep watering. Providing a support system will encourage vertical growth, making harvesting easier and saving space. Cucamelons are ready to harvest when they are about the size of a grape and firm to the touch.
If you were wondering where to buy cucamelon seeds, you’ve found it! By planting them, anyone can cultivate an unusual and interesting plant with a cool refreshing flavor. They are surprisingly beautiful on trellises, and in salads, offering a unique snacking experience.
