How hot is the hottest temp you would want to grow your melons in? I know watermelons are very risistant to heat but i just wanted to make sure. The temps where i live in the summer normally top off 100 every other day with the rest being high 90's or so for 2 months. The hottest it ever gets here is arould 110 F but that only lasts for a couple of days at the summers peak. Thanks!

My melons slowed from 7 lbs a day to 5 lbs when temps went over 95 degrees when I grew the 260.5.So I think melons do best between 85 & 95 degrees.
