I love these grower diaries and find myself often reading as much as I can. Gathering as much info as you can and drawing your own conclusions is the fun part I think and trying to do science to make something truly impressive should be documented. All of the additives and techniques different growers use are truly entertaining to watch. I used to do saltwater reef keeping and coral growing, but now that I have some acreage I am getting into the larger realm of growing things. Right now I am confined to a few standing planters until I can terraform the land properly. My soil is largely Decomposed Granite so I'm sure I will have to do some heavy handed soil amendments for a pumpkin or two.

Attached you can see my current mini melons. the larger plant on the left is a "Minnesota Midget" cantaloupe. There are also two Baby Bush watermelons. These particular plants are likely not what most of you are interested in reading about but I find them curious plants and those are the kinds I am most interested in, plus I don't have any cool seeds right now.

I'll post some more of my current plants in the following posts
