Best early ever
Reviewed By: steve fagerness (sioux falls, sd)
First time I planted them but will plant again this year as it produced many melon, over 20 off 2 plants, looked like something from the store and tasted even better. I could not find a better cantalope.

Another great year with the same melon you won't believe your eyes sweet juicey and a multitude of melons. If you want the best and earliest plant Alaska Hybrid.

Taste disappointing
Reviewed By: Claudette (Hudson, CO)
This produced cantaloupe larger and a few days earlier than the Sweet'n Early variety, but the taste doesn't compare. I used most of them for smoothies. To eat a fresh cantaloupe, I'll stay with the Sweet'n Early.
