It can be done! Hydroponic watermelons. The first candidates are just hitting the chart in weight which puts them in the low 20's. These may not be the keepers as others are coming on strong and have not reached day 15 yet. Here is a 165-B female with their typical large girth to length ratio. A younger sister may get the nod because of her early length but she better be chubby as well when she reaches day 15. Four melon plants and 8 tomatoes are drinking about 30 gallons a day and they are no where near fully developed. Got to find a way to get spraying done. So far no fungicide treatments which will spell disaster.
