It forms large oval‑shaped fruits with striking wide dark‑green stripes over green rind. The thick bright‑red flesh is juicy, crisp and high‑sugar, delivering outstanding eating quality. This variety features excellent yielding ability and strong field adaptability. Full‑sun growing conditions support fruit expansion and sugar accumulation. Leave sufficient space for vine sprawling. Even with its hardy nature, perform regular pest and disease observation. Reduce watering when fruits enter late ripening stage to improve sweetness.

Planting Instructions Soil Preparation Choose a full‑sun location with reliable drainage. Mix plenty of well‑rotted organic compost into loose fertile sandy‑loam soil. Avoid low‑lying water‑logged land.
Seed Pre‑treatment Pick plump and undamaged seeds. Soak seeds in warm water for 4‑6 hours, air‑dry slightly before sowing to boost germination performance. Cold stratification is unnecessary.
Sowing Method Sow in spring after all frost threats pass. Place 2‑3 seeds in each hole, cover with 2‑3 cm fine soil. Plant spacing 120‑150 cm, row spacing 180‑220 cm. Thin seedlings and retain one strong seedling per hole.
Germination Condition Optimal germination temperature:22‑30°C. Seedlings emerge within 7‑12 days. Keep soil moderately moist, avoid over‑watering.
Daily Maintenance Provide adequate water in vine‑growing phase, cut back watering when fruits ripen. Apply balanced fertilizer for vine growth, switch to potassium‑rich fertilizer once fruits start setting. Remove weeds on time. Watch for melon pests and fungal infections. Harvest when stem tendrils dry out and rind surface turns matte for best‑tasting red flesh.
