Peppers are in the foreground and a row of Mt. Hoosiers from Jake Holloway. These are being grown for fun and breeding purposes. I really think the dark black rind melons are neat and would love to get some genetics into these so they can go over 200 pounds. ( These plants are under some busted up old cold frames. These frames did not have any plastic on the gable ends and were placed over the plants mainly to keep the rain off and to keep the environment a little warmer. It has been wet and cool I have lost many muskmelon and pepper transplants to damping off. I have never had this occur before. The soil is cold and wet. In hindsight Much of the transplanting could have waited.
