Savor the sweetness of summer with Richgrow Seeds RG 14 Musk Melon Open Pollinated Seeds, a non-GMO, heirloom variety (Cucumis melo), ideal for home gardeners and farmers seeking juicy, high-quality harvests at an unbeatable price! The RG 14 variety, prized for its adaptability, produces round to oval fruits, weighing 1–1.5 kg, with a golden-yellow skin covered in fine netting and a thick, orange flesh delivering a sweet, aromatic flavor (12–14% TSS), perfect for fresh eating, fruit salads, or refreshing smoothies, ready to harvest in 70–85 days. Packed with vitamins A, C, potassium, and 90% water, these melons support hydration, immunity, and heart health, with anti-inflammatory properties, as noted in muskmelon benefits (April 14, 2025). The vigorous, trailing vines, sprawling 2–3 meters, are resistant to pests like fruit flies and diseases such as powdery mildew, thriving in warm climates, with optimal sowing in spring to early summer (February–March) across Pan-India, especially in Punjab, Maharashtra, and Uttar Pradesh, as aligned with sowing discussions (April 10, 2025). Sow 2–3 seeds at a 1–1.5 cm depth in well-drained, fertile loamy soil (50% garden soil, 30% compost, 20% sand, pH 6.0–7.0) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 60 cm apart in rows 1.5–2 meters wide; treat seeds with Carbendazim (2g/kg) for disease prevention, achieving 85% germination within 6–10 days at 20–30°C. Maintain moist soil with regular watering (1–2 liters per plant daily), reduce watering near maturity, and fertilize with organic compost or vermicompost every 2–3 weeks; use neem oil for pests like aphids and trellises for vine support. Harvest when the skin turns golden and fruits slip easily from the vine, offering good shelf life, and store unopened packets in a cool, dry place for up to 3 years. Available in Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (10–15 seeds), Standard Packet, Professional Pack (200–250 grams), or custom bulk orders, all in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets with an 85% germination rate, designed for your sustainable vision at www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com, reflecting your eco-friendly, customer-centric brand with nature-inspired packaging (green, brown, white).
