Dry them out on a newspaper or paper towel and then sow them. As you know cantaloups develop vines, rather long vines to be honest. You'll need a large area to let the vines creep along. I've never frozen any seeds, but have refrigerated them to keep them fresh and alive for the next season.

Subject: [Native Gardening] Cantaloupe seeds....
My wife brought home a couple of nice cantaloups today. She's thinking of using the seeds in our garden. Is there anything 'special' we should do? I'm sure letting them dry out on some paper towels would be #1. But I have read that freezing seeds at times activates them, too. What should I do to get these to grow in our garden?
