Melon 'Ein Dor'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Ein Dor is generally regarded as a hardy plant, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Ein Dor needs a potting mix and loamy soil with a ph of 6.1 to 7.5 (weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil).

Aim to sow 0.5 inches (1.27 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.88 feet (58.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 21°C / 70°F.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Ein Dor about 14 days before your last frost date.

Ein Dor is hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
