Was taking this picture of all the Melons yesterday at the Anamosa Ryan Norlin weigh-off when I was approached by a couple growers who asked me if I saw the damage on the melon that had just come in. It was an area that measured over 5" across and was brown and rotting way into the pink fruit of the melon. It knocked me out of 2nd place before another melon a little later on putting me out of 3rd place $100.00. I was amazed as it was accepted as being in good condition, clearly damaged. GPC Rules were clearly not followed at this site.
