White melon, also known as slightly melon, raw melon, more melon, crisp melon, field melon and so on, belongs to the family Cucurbitaceae. White melons can be eaten raw or cooked. So how to grow white melons?

First, sow seeds at the right time

Cultivation is carried out when the temperature reaches about 15 degrees. Do not sow too early, otherwise the seeds are easy to freeze, germinate slowly or even fail to germinate. Growth after germination will also be seriously hindered.

II. Fertilizer and water management

Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied during soil preparation, and the base fertilizer is mainly agricultural machinery fertilizer and compound fertilizer. The amount of fertilizer required for farming is relatively large, but the application of fertilizer and water should be controlled before the results to prevent overnutrition from causing overgrowth of plants and affecting fruit setting.

III. Timely harvest

The growing period of white melon is not very long, and it usually ripens after a month of flowering. At this time, the fruit is of good quality, the pulp is soft, the stalk gradually collapses, and it is easy to pick, so it is the best time to harvest.

The waterlogging prevention of white melon is relatively poor, pay attention to drainage and waterlogging prevention before harvest, to prevent stagnant water from causing diseases and insect pests, serious white melon will all rot.
