Don't forget to PM me with your address, and once the melon has germinated, pot on in larger pots, it will be fine in an unheated greenhouse a few weeks after germination, as long as the threat of frost has gone, the hotter the better for them, i think the winner will come from a greenhouse or tunnel grower.
