This is the same one. The day after I grafted it which was a few days ago, it began to wilt because I didn't cover it with anything and the air around it was very dry. I sprayed the inside of a cup and placed it over the graft and now its so hard and healthy its like a stick lol. I read bat cave's advice about grafting on the discussion board and I'm trying it out. This is the easiest way to graft for me and I basically just made a slot for the melon seedling to fit into. I don't have grafting clips so it makes it easier. Its a melon seedling grafted to a winter squash seedling. I don't even know how compatible they are but with the previous ones I tried after a few days and they were still alive, where as with the birdhouse gourd grafts, the melon seedlings would wilt within hours. I still haven't had a surviving graft yet but I am trying.
