{"title":"Melon seeds","description":"Growing your own fruits and vegetables is not only fun and rewarding, but also sustainable. One of the most exciting things to grow at home is melon. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know about growing melons from seed.\n\nChoosing the right melon seeds\n\nThe first step in growing your own melons is selecting the type of seeds. When choosing between different varieties, consider the climate where you live and the space you have available. Some types thrive in warmer climates, while others do well even in cooler northern summers.\n\nSowing and care\n\nStart your seeds indoors early in the spring, as melons require a lot of warmth to germinate. After 2–3 weeks, when the seedlings have grown stronger, you can transplant them outdoors once the risk of frost has passed.\n\nThroughout the growing season, keep the soil consistently moist and ensure good drainage. With proper care, your melon seeds will grow into healthy plants that produce juicy, sweet fruits.\n\nHarvesting your own melon\n\nHarvesting your own homegrown melon is the ultimate reward for your efforts. While ripening time can vary by variety, most melons are ready to pick 70–90 days after planting.\n\nWhether you're an experienced gardener or new to growing, we hope this guide gives you the inspiration and information you need to start your own melon adventure. With our high-quality melon seeds, you can enjoy delicious, sun-ripened fruit right from your own garden.","products":[{"product_id":"fro-till-vattenmelon-crimson-sweet","title":"Watermelon - Crimson Sweet ECO","description":"A stylish and classic red watermelon with a heavenly taste.

Tigrimini can therefore cope in a sheltered location but outdoors even in a Nordic climate, fantastic, isn't it?\n\n\n\nThe variety has slightly smaller melons but with explosive sweetness and taste. Fantastic to eat directly as it is or to use in a summer salads that need to be spiced up. Our garden expert Johanna Damm usually makes a starter of Tigrimini by dicing it into small cubes, crumbling Chevré cheese and then drizzling some creamy balsamic over it. Last of all, she adds a little salt and pepper.
