I planted this melon as a last ditch effort to grow a giant melon after it became evident that the voes were causing severe damage to my outdoor plants. I had this 209 Holloway plant stagnating in the greenhouse, in a 2 quart pot. I layed a tarp on the bench and covered it with straight compost. Hopefully I can keep this melon healthy in here and get one to grow for me. Mites are a big problem in the greenhouse and will have to be managed. If it does work I will be thrilled to have it, as it was planted in it's spot around July 14th. You will never know if something will work until you try it.
