The Capitoshka melon is a hybrid variety featuring pyriform fruits with dark yellow rind adorned with large spots and yellow dots. The weight of a single fruit ranges from 1.2 to 1.7 kg, making this variety sufficiently large and attractive for cultivation. The maturation period is mid-to-late, with the time from germination to technical maturity being approximately 95-110 days. The plant is semi-spreading, reaching a height of 45-55 cm, which facilitates care and harvest collection.
For successful cultivation, it is recommended to sow seeds when the soil temperature reaches 16 °C at a depth of 3-4 cm, with a distance between holes of 50-80 cm. The yield of the variety reaches 4.9-5.2 kg per square meter, indicating the high productivity of the crop. The best predecessors for planting Capitoshka melons are potatoes, cabbage, and legumes, which helps maintain soil fertility and reduce the risk of diseases.
The fruits of the Capitoshka melon have excellent taste and are suitable for fresh consumption. Thanks to their dense and juicy flesh, they will be a great addition to the summer diet. This variety is characterized by good disease resistance and low-maintenance care, making it an ideal choice for both experienced gardeners and beginners.
