Edible Qualities
Kazakh Melon is an annual vegetable plant that is typically grown for its edible qualities. It produces small green oval melons (which are technically 'berries') with creamy white flesh which are typically harvested when mature. The fruit will often fade to gold over time. The melons have a sweet taste with a firm texture and a pleasant fragrance.
The melons are most often used in the following ways:
- Fresh Eating
- Eating When Cooked/Prepared
- Preserves
- Freezing
Planting & Growing
Kazakh Melon will grow to be about 24 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 6 feet. When planted in rows, individual plants should be spaced approximately 24 inches apart. This vegetable plant is an annual, which means that it will grow for one season in your garden and then die after producing a crop.
This plant is typically grown in a designated vegetable garden. It should only be grown in full sunlight. It does best in average to evenly moist conditions, but will not tolerate standing water. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. Consider applying a thick mulch around the root zone over the growing season to conserve soil moisture. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America, and it is considered by many to be an heirloom variety.
