Tar Kakdi Snake Melon
(C. melo var. alwarensis x flexuous) Pronounced “Kak-a-dee”, this unique Cucumber Shop Tar Kakdi snake melon population has been selected for light colored consistently slender long snake-like fruits. While this Indian variety looks much like an Armenian cucumber, it exhibits a number of distinguishing alwarenis variety characteristics including slender fruit, trichomes (fine fuzz) and a pungent smell when ripe. The plants require disease-free soil as they are highly susceptible to Fusarium Wilt and Powdery Mildew. Additionally, a long dry warm season is required to grow large fruit.
