Saturday, February 9 View Page After careful consideration it is looking like my final melon lineup for 2019 is going to be the following seeds. I almost grew Dave Cantrell�s 171.5 from 2017 last year but decided to grow his 140.5 instead. After the success of the 140.5 I have decided to grow both this year. Thanks again BrotherDave!! 140.5 Cantrell 2017 (228 Carson x self) 171.5 Cantrell 2017 (157 Bright x self) 318.5 Kent 2016 (302 Kent x 242 Kent) 205 Kent JBD (110 Bright x self) 189.71 Lindley JBD (110 Bright x self) Not sure how many of each I will grow other than the JBDs.
