Recomendaciones de conservación

Commercial storage guidance for netted melons (cantaloupe, muskmelon), general. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Postharvest ethylene exposure shortens shelf-life and should be avoided, and melons are easily injured, so they must not be dropped and equipment should be padded. Produces significant ethylene: store apart from ethylene-sensitive produce. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
