ED, I have 125 plants that the Amish start for me in their greenhouse in TN. It is June 13 and a few melons are football size. We are growing Sugar Baby, Moon/ Star red and yellow, Jubilee, Charleston Grey and Black Diamond. We use fertilize, wood ash, and lime in the hills that are covered by pieces of weed barrier material. I water them with a hose every 3 days. wish me luck.

This is honestly mind-blowing… I’ve always grown watermelons the “sprawl everywhere” way too, and my results are pretty much the same — huge space, but only a few decent fruits.<br><br>This season I actually tried something similar to what you showed — I planted them closer together and used a simple trellis. The plants are growing fast, but now I’m getting worried… won’t they compete too much for nutrients and end up with smaller melons?<br><br>Have you ever seen cases where this method backfires, like plants looking healthy but fruit quality drops?

The yellow spot doesn't work if the melon isn't on the ground, as in a hanging basket, duh!

So much blah blah! A gardener is looking for solid tips - but not so much verbiage. Brevity is the soul of respect my friend.

Why is this video so ridiculously long? The info and images could easily be covered in about 7 minutes or less. Plus you would be much more credible if you chose real images. So many random seeming images selected from the web. Focus and brevity will bring you more subscribers.
