How to Grow Cucamelons

Though they start out as slow growing, delicate seedlings, cucamelon plants will eventually grow to be huge sprawling vines. They thrive on full sun and hot soils, and in the heat of summer the vines will take over a huge vertical trellis.

Starting Cucamelon Seeds Indoors

Start cucamelon seeds indoors about 4 weeks before the last cool temperatures date. This is the same time you start cucumbers from seed, and it's well after other crops like tomatoes and peppers. Members of the cucumber family don't transplant well once they're older, so while it's important to help cucamelons get a good early start, don't get carried away.

Cucamelon seeds should be planted about 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep and take about 7 to 14 days to germinate, depending on temperature. Ideally, they'd be germinated with warm soil, somewhere between 70 and 75 degrees F. A seedling heat mat can ensure success if your seed starting area is cool or drafty.

In the warmest areas, you can direct seed cucamelons outdoors, but soil temperatures need to be above 70 degrees before planting. Outdoor seed starting is only really viable in areas where cucamelons can be grown as perennials, zones 7 through 10.

Transplanting Cucamelon Plants

After a few days getting used to the sun and air outdoors, transplant the young seedlings to well-drained garden soil.

The seedlings may be small, and the vines spindly, but they'll really take off when things heat up mid-summer. Be sure to plant the young cucamelon seedlings 12 inches apart, and give them a tall trellis to climb. The trellis ensures that the plants get good sunlight all around, helps keep soil temperatures warm and makes the cucamelons much easier to pick.

In areas with long summers, cucamelon vines can grow 10+ feet tall, so give them plenty of vertical space.
