ESheel I honestly don’t know other than the watermelon in the May 17th post in my diary that I am putting the shed over is the same melon . You tell me how old it is based on today’s date and the melon size on 5/17/18 . 14 days in May plus 8 in June = 22 known days, then the time it took to get to the size shown on 5/17. Give me your best guess.Thanks

I’m going to guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 lbs.
80-90?
Appears to be growing well.
Have you tried the chart ?

Do you know how to measure for it ?
That will give you a pretty close estimate.
The one from the GWG website is pretty good.
Marvin was pretty close with his estimates.
God bless him.

Looks about 8 days old may. 17 if talking the 199

Completely unknown,but I estimated about 8 days old on 5/17as well. That would put it at 28 days old today . This is the 199.5 Mudd by Rampart. I identified as Mitchell in one post but I looked at my sheet and it is the Mudd
