I might have to get the wife to grow some of those! The melon taste great; I'm not too picky though. I was getting about 3 good melons per vine before the dog found lizards in the melon patch. A few good nights of her chasing lizards and then some really hot days can put a hurt on my melon production. She recently found my eggplant too. She thinks they look like bumpers for retrieving. She stripped 6 large eggplants off and brought them to me the other night while I was in bed. I recently installed cattle/hog panel around most of my beds to keep her out; now I'm battling black birds that sneak in and destroy my melon and sunflower seedlings.

Still gotta get a shade canopy (picture is before that phase of the project). Hopefully this weekend. Missed the window to get things planted, but they'll be ready for the fall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should be flowering around fall planting season if you plant this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
