Suggest using a seedling heat mat or artificial warmth source or cover the seed tray with cling wrap, if you are living in temperate and cold zones of Australia (e.g. Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Adelaide, Hobart and 200-300kms surrounding areas). Even if you are not living above areas, follow the weather, if it remains cooler than the given range, you are suggested to use the provided approach. Failure to maintain provided soil temperature result in delayed or failed germination. Plant outside only when weather is warm and settled and night temperatures stay above 17oC to 20oC consistently. Make slightly mounded growing hills 2 to3 feet apart. Sow seeds 15-20cm deep, 120cm apart, 4 seeds in a clump. Thin seedlings to leave the 2 strongest plants per hill so vines will have room to grow and mature. The p Harvest & Use Delicata needs the full growing season to mature properly. When rinds are tough enough to resist a fingernail, cut fruits from vines with a good stem, let them cure for 10...
