Our best watermelon measured 148", 95# today. That is a 21.5# gain in 6 days. Not too bad. In another 6 days it should beat my personal best. I hope it can keep this up through August and I might have a chance at breaking 200#. The foxtail is growing through gaps in the weed fabric. I am afraid it will pack the soil too much or damage roots pulling it, so I guess I will let it grow. I can always add extra water and fertilizer to make up for what it takes.
