I have a couple melons set on two of my three melon plants. I am not happy with the shape on one of them, but I may stick with it as I have seen watermelons fill out with time. Unlike pumpkins which just seem to get worse with time. The two melons were pollinated around the fourth of July. Not sure the exact date as they are Open pollinated.
My condolences go out to Rodney Register, I saw his post on the GWG facebook page. What a darn shame. Disease wiped out his beautiful melon plants overnight. (There must have been a dozen gorgeous plants just wiped right out) He had some fantastic looking plants and melons. All that hard work down the tubes. I swear the disease waits for you to spend the time and set up little shelters around the melon before deciding to end your season. Stick with it Rodney, you have the makings of a great melon grower. This hobby is definitely not suited for people who are easily discouraged.
