Watermelons Are Taking Over
We planted about 10 watermelon plants and you’ll see from the pictures with the right fertilizer and watering they have gone crazy. They are climbing up the wire frames we built for the cucumbers.
The cucumbers are suffering a little bit but we’re getting tons of those as well. The watermelons used the cucumbers as a way to escape our greenhouse.
You can see the watermelons are not quite ready even after being careful about choosing the bigger ones with all the signs. They were tempting us so we picked one. They are sweet and tasty even when we picked them a few days early. Marian made watermelon rind pickles.
