Summarized by Shop
Minnesota Midget is absolutely the best choice if you are working with limited garden space. Its compact vines reach just 3 to 4 feet in length while producing 6 to 8 melons each! In fact, we once counted five melons growing in about four-square-feet. The melons are smaller, about four to six inches across, but they pack a lot of flavor

Fast growing!
Planted the seeds 4 days ago and they sprouted yesterday.
I bought a foil baking pan with a lid and peet pellets. I placed the pan on my heating pad with the heat turned on low.
Will be placing them under my grow light in a few days, can't wait to see how they grow with it .

Very sweet and grow great
These are well behaved plants as it says and producing really well. Taste great just really need to keep on top of them since they do attract bugs once ripe.
