Melon maturity groups
Cucumis melo L.
Classification of melon cultivars and hybrids based on the duration of the growing season from mass emergence to harvest maturity, measured in days.
In the reference 410 varieties crop Melon, where this is mentioned in the description.
There are three main maturity groups for melons: early (55–70 days), mid-season (75–90 days), and late-maturing (100–140 days). Group assignment is determined based on phenological observations, recording dates of developmental phases, and organoleptic assessment of fruit maturity.
Signs of harvest readiness include changes in skin color, development of the netting, condition of the peduncle, and the emergence of a characteristic aroma. The maturity group determines the agrotechnical strategy: early varieties are optimal for short summers, while late-maturing ones are distinguished by increased shelf life for storage.
