1st day of low numbers on all 3 melons. Only 1/2" growth on each melon because of temps in the low 50's at night and clouds the last 6-7 days. We had sunshine today but a day not out of the 70's. I foliar sprayed for fungus and drenched w/ a Systemic > insect/disease. Very cool mornings for the last week with heavy heavy fog = powdery mildew threats hence I have stepped up fungicides for preventive maintenance. Fiona put on nice girth numbers in the past 3 days but as far as the last 24 hrs they all show they have slowed evenly so not too too worried right now. We have a forcast for temps in the 90's but T-Storms for all weekend. Sucks.
