Title: Melon Seeds wanted
Post by: sweet-pea on April 21, 2006, 15:39:32
After reading posts on growing melons I quite fancy giving them a go so I was wondering whether anyone had a couple of spare seeds I could try.  They would have to be ones that are suitable for growing outdoors e.g. 'Minnesota Midget'  and 'Sweetheart' were  mentioned.

In return I have a selection of Squash seeds, can't remember which exactly but I can check at home.  Also have various herb seeds, and other veg although no exciting varieties.

Thanks

Hi,

I've got two varieties of melon seeds and one variety of watermelon:

Ananas d'Amerique Melon
Cantaloupe Melon 'Collective Farm Woman'
Blacktail Mountain Watermelon

All three from the 'Real Seed Catalogue' - they claim these varieties produce smallish fruit which suits the English weather.

Not looking for anything in exchange. Just PM me your address and I'll get some seeds out this weekend.

I've just sown mine last week and all came up within about 4 days.

Regards,
Vaca

Vaca, do you have one or two spare seeds of 'Collective Farm Woman' left?

If so, I have a list of swapsies as long as your arm.

PS - I tried to PM you but your inbox is full.
