Besides applying Israeli drip irrigation technology, each melon gourd used 100% coir imported from the South and planted off the ground to help limit pests. In addition, the use of coir creates porosity and allows the tree to absorb nutrients for faster growth and sweeter fruit easily.

The entire membrane house system is irrigated with well water that has been filtered and treated, controlled by pH, to help the output products meet food safety and hygiene standards. Besides, an intelligent irrigation system saves labor and ensures the amount of water for plants.

Technically, after sowing, the melon plants are arranged in rows and fixed with fixed strings. Flowering plants will conduct manual pollination. Each tree only leaves one fruit, pruning all the axillary branches to create ventilation and limit nutrient consumption. When the fruit has a diameter of 3-4 centimeters (about 40 days after planting), the tops should be stopped to focus on growing the fruit. From planting to harvesting, Cantaloupe takes 65-70 days; 3 crops a year can be developed. The Peruvian and Dutch melons yield about 1.3 kilograms per fruit. For Dutch cucumbers, the time from planting to harvest takes 45 days.
