100 Crews watermelon. Yesterday it was very wilted. Had to emergency irrigate. Never saw a melon plant do that. It's part of the grafted root learning curve. Melon roots are ridiculously good at extracting moisture. Field pumpkins, not so. Probably why the plant was blowing up under the previous high moisture content. I need to keep soil moisture to the high side but not too high.
