My friend Harold gave me this photo today taken last September.This is the 209 & 190 grown on my 260.5 2012 season.I still cant get over how well they did in the weeds.The weeds won over about mid August and buried the plant by labor day.The 260 grew 30 pds in sept the year before.These pretty much grew the same rate in the weeds.So IMHHO.The late pollination due to compost binding up nitrogen was the cause for my drop in weights,Along with Jackson Fever!.lol.Note to self:screen sticks from compost.Supply nitrogen to plants early on.1 week is 35 lbs on a melon.
