Melons are not pollinated by wind, and since melon pollen is heavy and sticky, even those varieties that have perfect flowers, need bees for adequate pollination.
The crenshaw and Persian melons should keep for 2 weeks, and Honey Dew and Casaba melons for 3 weeks, before the quality of the ripened melons becomes unacceptable.
These melons are chilling sensitive and should not be held below 40 F. The best prolonged holding temperature is 45 F for Honey Dew, Crenshaw, and persian melons, and 50 F for Casaba melons.

Persian Melons are a larger version of a cantaloupe.
This is one of the more difficult melons to grow and are fragile when ripe so unfortunately are picked quite often under ripe.For best flavor, pick a Persian that is over 5 pounds or more with the background color turning to a nice bronze color.
High quality appearance is protected, in part, by packing with a partition to protect melons from bruising, compression and scuffing.

 How To Grow Melons
To harvest Persian melons, simply clip the stem with a sharp pair of clippers, leaving a 2 inch stub still attached to the melon.
When your melons obtain a mature colour, wiggle the stem where it connects to the fruit; if the stem comes off easily and leaves a concave end on the melon, the fruit is at 'slip' stage and is ready to eat.
If you detect a strong scent, the melon is ready to harvest.
