Planting and Thinning

Every hill should be leveled with the
hoe or hand and six to eight seed scat
tered and covered with about one-haH
inch Of sol. When the seedlings have
developed their first true leaves, they
are then trimmed to one or two plants
per hill To prevent the disturbance Cd

cut off above the soil with hoe, knife.
or an Old razor blade attached 70 8
stick.
Cultivation
The system of the root is shallow and
extensive. The roots som fill the fer
tia layer of soil The lateral roots es-
tend to a far greater distance than the
stems This position of the NOT system
makes shallow cultivation necessary
The first cultivation should be deep TO
induce lateral root pesetratyon and tc
facilitate penetration of water. Guilt
walton should be shallow and farther
away from the plant When the vines,
meet the center of the row, cultivation
s,pdd cease. When moving the vines
except the tips to permit cultivation
it does more harm than good. It de-
stroys blossoms, drives away bees and
bruise the stems.
Thinning Fruit
Many growers believe that thinning
increases fruit size, permits more uni
form ripening and increase quality. The
usual practice is to thin to about two
of the best melons per vine when the
largest fruit is four to six inches long
Harvesting and Shipping
Indications used to determine ripeness
are ID whitening of the tendrils at the
fruit stsm CD hardening of the rind
which rest on the ground, (the rind
remains soft while the fruit is immature)
and 90 rapping of the melon with the
knuckles hollow sound indicates i'm
maturity a dull heavy sound denotes
ripeness. These tests vary somewhat

Tb prevent infection with stezn-en
rot, the stems are then treated with
starch pasta containing copper sulphate
at the time the melons are loaded for
