Great-tasting Eastern shipper.
A delicious cantaloupe that withstands the rigors of storage and handling. With excellent crack tolerance, disease resistance, and good shelf-life, Triton is comparable to Athena but has improved flavor, a smaller seed cavity, slightly smaller fruit (avg. 4–5 1/2 lb.), and earlier maturity (up to 3 days). Harvest at full-slip or when background color is tan. Bred by Jason Cavatorta of EarthWork Seeds.
Disease Resistance:
Fusarium Wilt races 0–2 (High)
