Planting Depth: Sow the seeds 1 inch deep.
Spacing: Space the seeds 12-18 inches apart, with rows about 4-5 feet apart to give the vines room to spread.

Watering: Water deeply but infrequently, especially in the early stages of growth. Avoid wetting the leaves to reduce the risk of diseases like powdery mildew.
Mulching: Apply mulch around the plants to retain moisture, control weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer or one high in phosphorus and potassium as the plants begin to flower and fruit.

5. Pest and Disease Management

Pests: Monitor for pests like aphids, cucumber beetles, and melon worms. Use organic pest control methods, such as neem oil or insecticidal soap.
Diseases: Prevent fungal diseases by avoiding overhead watering and ensuring proper air circulation around the plants.

6. Harvesting

Timing: Muskmelons are typically ready to harvest in 70-90 days. Look for the characteristic aroma and a slight softening of the melon at the stem end.
