Just got some grafts done on the giant watermelons. I am going to try rooting them in pure perlite. Fingers crossed. So far this year it has been a struggle in many, many ways. Mice have eaten up two batches of my watermelon seedlings and rootstocks. Hopefully I have that under control now. As gardeners (and in life) we are battling against forces that are out to thwart our best efforts.
"Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life. It will produce thorns and thistles for you. -Genesis 3
I am still on crutches, recovering from my ruptured achilles. If nothing else I now have a lot more respect and empathy for people who deal with physical disabilities.
