  • In this video, I tell you and show you how to tell when a cantaloupe is ripe and perfect to pick or cut open. There are a few things that you should look for, feel for, and smell for that will allow you to know about the ripeness of a cantaloupe. It might take a few minutes to determine if it is ripe at first, but once you've practiced the process a few times, you'll be able to spot a ripe cantaloupe in a matter of a couple of seconds.

      It says that if it's not cut when not ripe just set it on counter until ripe and if you cut it just put it in the fridge to ripen.

      @@creativesparks2164 no i wasnt very good at figuring out when they were ripe. And most of them would all ripen together. Going set up latice to grow them on next time to keepnthem off the ground. Easiest way i saw to tell if they are ripe is when they fall off the vine. Also grew black watermelons. Had almost 30 by the end of the season last year. Ended up feeding most of it to my cows cause i simply couldnt keep up with the garden and my farm. Had to much going on.

    Thanks for the tips-you've solved a lifelong source of frustration (eating unripe cantaloupe). Respectful tip to you: Improve your microphone setup. Even a cheap clip-on would be a big improvement over your current setup, which seems like your recording in an echo chamber.
