K. SmithK. Smith: These seeds are easy to grow. They all germinated quickly/on time which makes them a great value for the price. I planted the seeds 4 April 2021. I harvested one of the sugar babies this morning, 3 August 2021, which is past the 90 days and it was not very sweet. It was extremely juicy, though. I'm not sure why it isn't sweet. I even waited until the tiny leaf above the fruit turned brown as indicated in the last picture. Next sugar baby harvested will sit on my counter for a couple days before eating it. Since this is my first time planting fruit, I am not clear on the best time to harvest for maximum flavor. My one issue is that the seeds packaged as honey dew green are not accurate. They look like mini roundish watermelons (see second and third pics). So far, I only planted the sugar baby watermelon and what I thought was green melon. I will plant some different ones next season and update review. I'm giving it only 4 stars for the packaging mixup. But, I do recommend since they are good so far.

R. SlipchenkoR. Slipchenko: These seeds were excellent. Every seed that I planted grew, so I had a 100% germination rate. All fruit have turned out to be delicious. Honey Rock wasn't my favorite, but it all grew well. I've added a photo of how one of my actual banana melons from these seeds turned out. I planted these on April 3rd, and have had several harvests since then, but my first banana melon harvest was on July 18. They are the longest to mature, but are delicious and set out many fruits per plant! I've been able to save many seeds from these fruits; so I'll see if these will be hybrids or not next year as I planted them all near each other.

LeoLeo: Great so Far. I planted some Honey Dew Green Melon and Honey Rock Melon seeds and within a couple of days they grew their first couple of leaves. My only complain is that one of the envelopes was unidentified when I opened the package (see photo). I assume that these are the banana melon seeds since they were the only ones missing (I checked in the list that appears in the mylar bag), I guess I'll find out eventually.

Cyndi M: This was, by far, a better deal for the type and variety of seeds that are included. I searched almost everything here at Amazon and this was the only kits that was strictly fruit...and it's fruit that I like. I can't wait to try the Banana Melon! The seeds, if kept refrigerated, will last for a really LOOOOOOONG time! The big seller was that all the seeds are non-hybrid/non-GMOs. The simple fact that you can save the seeds from the plants you grow with these will benefit you for future plantings. Too many seeds saved??? Share them with your friends and family so they can keep the heirloom plants growing. Then they can share their seeds, and so on, and so on, and so on! Face it, major corporations (I won't mention any names-but you probably know) are slowly taking over seed companies and replacing their heirloom seeds with their own patented hybrids that are loaded with GMs and GMOs and will only grow one season making it so you have to buy seeds from them every year. Do yourself a favor and get these now before they are no longer around.
