I really messed up with the giant melons this year, the fall soil test said nutrients were excessive so I did not add manure. Last winter especially December was really wet I think it must have washed most of the nutrients out of the soil, another issue I think I have had this year is after I had the winter rye tilled in it stopped raining and I only watered a small are right around the plants. When it did rain I got a thick crust on top of the soil. I think the nitrogen in the soil got locked up in the winter rye. The other patch that I added manure to is doing fine the only problem is that they are regular melons. I think I may still beat my pb.
