| This variety was very healthy and disease free, and had no insect damage. The melons grew fairly large, averaging 7 pounds, and the single vine produced 6 melons over the season. The melons had a firm, juicy flesh, that was bland while room temperature, but quite spicy and flavorful once refrigerated |
