- Check the color and aroma – When the skin turns bright yellow and develops a slight golden hue, and the fruit emits a sweet, fragrant aroma, it’s ready to harvest. Avoid fruits that are still green.
- Use scissors or pruners, don’t twist by hand – Always use clean garden shears to snip the stem about 2–3 cm above the fruit. Twisting by hand may damage the delicate skin and reduce shelf life.
- Harvest in the early morning or late afternoon – Avoid picking under harsh midday sun to preserve moisture and sweetness. Cooler hours help maintain fruit quality.
- Pick only when fully mature – Sweet melons do not continue to ripen significantly after harvest, so make sure the fruit is fully mature on the vine for optimal flavor and sweetness.
- Store properly – After harvesting, keep the fruits in a cool, dry place or refrigerate. Proper storage helps the melon remain juicy and flavorful for up to 1–2 weeks.
