SWEET HARVEST is a mid-season hybrid of the Canary Yellow melon group, distinguished by high yield and excellent taste qualities. The period from seedling emergence to the first harvest ranges from 70 to 98 days, allowing for a mid-to-late season harvest. The plant is trailing with medium-sized, dissected green leaves. The fruits have an ovoid shape, a bright yellow or yellowish-orange color with a thin, sparse network of linear structure. The fruit mass varies from 1.2 to 3 kg, making them convenient for harvesting and transportation.
The SWEET HARVEST melon has white, soft, granular, and crispy flesh with a honeyed, rich taste and a high sugar content, which often exceeds 13%. The fruits are aromatic, juicy, and incredibly delicious, making them popular for both fresh consumption and export. Thanks to their unique storability and resistance to air and soil drought, the hybrid maintains market qualities for 12 days after harvest, and can be stored for more than three weeks with proper storage.
To grow SWEET HARVEST, it is recommended to sow seeds in soil warmed to +12 °C, preferably on sandy and chernozem loamy soils. Care for the plants includes regular weeding and loosening of the soil. The hybrid is well adapted to various climatic conditions, as evidenced by its successful cultivation in the North Caucasian and Lower Volga regions. High yield and transportability make this variety attractive for both farmers and commercial producers.
