Looks like my cantalopes are "stuck" and not growing so much (the plant at the top of the pic is an acorn squash (bush) plant.

These canatalope were transplants, and I must have disturbed the roots too much (I had several cantalope seedlings in a 1-gal jug, then divided them up. Lesson learned.) They've been in these smart pots for about 3 weeks now. I'll go ahead and re-sow more seeds in individual nursery pots and cut my loses with these guys. One seed, one pot.

Again- please excuse the blurry pic.
