I have been pricing certified organic melons at farmers markets at $1/lb.  My Halona melons have not been very sweet, due to all the rain we've had.  I suppose it would help if they were growing on sandy soil, too.

WOW!!! The Sun Jewel melon from Johnny's is outstanding.  Incredibly good taste and great production. Anyone growing it can advise on pricing please?  This is my first time growing melons at all, so I am in the dark about cantaloupe (so cheap in the store) which makes my in the pitch black dark on pricing the Sun Jewel.
 
Thank you.
