Heres the 49.5 melon I culled the other day.What a maroon!Solid as a rock.I had to pick her with 2 on the plant.I wanted Marv Mitchell to see this as he does a study on when the air develops in a melon.This one is 18 days old,no air.I watered 1/4 to 1/2 inch a day .once a day during the heat of the day to cool the soil & bring down temps in melon cave.Dang! I just shared another secret!LOL!I hope all do well growing this year I would love to see 3-300 pders,now that would create a buZZZZZ!!We finally got some rain 1 1/8 inch started at 2 am & still just stopped at 7:30 am lots of lighting & thunder, NICE!!!,If she rains more then 1/2 today I will cover Kin Cave & Melon Cave in 6 mil plastic.I have a 100 foot X 40 roll & I'm not afraid to use it.LOL!
