Managed to get hoops set up just prior to the wind picking up ahead of some expected rain. Noticed flies in the hoops that produce seed corn maggots. Hopefully the timing is right to keep them from laying eggs in the hoops and causing me problems. Seeds are starting to push up in pots and should be breaking through by tomorrow. This will be the first year that they will see sun light from day one and not fluorescent. Thanks to a bit more encouragement I'm going to put some effort into a couple watermelon plants. I'm going to try to do them hydroponically although I'm not sure exactly which method I'm going to use. Since I have no idea how this might turn out I'll plant a couple of my proven seeds to get an idea if the method can produce results similar to years past. It won't be a definitive comparison but it should give me some clue as to whether or not future effort is warranted. No grafts just traditional.
