Gang:
Well why looking through old Pomonas for Donna I did determine that Melons
are a NAFEX approved topic as at least one discussion was printed in Pomona
in April of 1981.
In an article entitle “A Melon For Northern Gardeners” David Imes who lived about a quarter mile form the Canadian Border in Minn experimented with growing 30 varieties of melons, direct seeded outdoors. He found one winner, a melon known as Early Dawn. So for colder climate growers it looks like you have a melon with potential to run some trails with in the future.
Regards,
Lil ol' me
