Melon variety Sugar Baby has sweet fruits with a dark green skin and salmon coloured flesh, weighs up to 3 kg. A soil covering of black mulching material favours growth and ripening. Outdoor cultivation only possible in warm climates, otherwise the fruit won't ripen. Don't harvest too soon, only when the runners and fruit stem have dried out. Water melons can be kept for about ten days at 8-10°C.
