Grown almost anywhere because it ripens early, Sugar Baby bears perfectly round fruits averaging 7 inches across. The flavor runs as good as larger shipping melons, often better.
Start indoors 3-4 weeks before last frost in peat pots or sow outdoors in warm soil over 70°F, then space plants 36-48 inches apart. This packet plants an 18-20 foot row.
