Explore the wide selection of melon seeds at Kings Seeds, perfect for growing to eat on those hot summer days. Whether you're after juicy watermelons, sweet rockmelons, or unique types like Kiwano Horned melon, there’s something for every gardener. With over 45 years of experience, Kings Seeds ensures top-quality seeds that thrive in New Zealand conditions. It's easier than you think to grow your own delicious melons for summer eating.
Melon seeds typically take 5–10 days to germinate under ideal conditions. Sowing seeds during spring when the soil temperature is above 20℃ helps achieve the best germination. From planting young seedlings, melons need about 80–100 days to mature, depending on the variety. Ensuring the soil remains warm and consistently moist is key for optimal growth. Regular watering is essential as plants develop vines and fruit. Choose Kings Seeds for premium melon seeds, ideal for a range of New Zealand gardens.
One seed has the potential to yield several melons, depending on the variety and care provided. Healthy plants grown in nutrient-rich soil with adequate watering and fertiliser can produce between 3–5 fruit. Factors such as space, sunlight, plant health and pollination also influence fruit production. Nurturing plants properly ensures strong vines capable of supporting more melons. Kings Seeds’ high-quality melon seeds help gardeners maximise their harvest, and enjoy flavourful summer fruit.
Kings Seeds provides a diverse range of melon seeds for gardeners across New Zealand. From traditional watermelon crisp and fresh, to rockmelons musky and sweet, the selection includes something for everyone. Unique options like canary melons, charantais melons and the kiwano horned melon, add exciting variety to any garden. Each seed is selected for quality and suitability to New Zealand’s growing conditions. With Kings Seeds, a 100% NZ-owned family business, gardeners can enjoy the largest certified organic range and reliable advice for a fruitful growing experience.
