So, this may be a silly question, but in southeast Michigan when should my peppers and melons be setting fruit? I grew peppers from store-bought plants last year and definitely had some flowers on them about this time last year, and I have never grown melon before. I grew both things from seed this winter. The peppers seem to be taking a very long time to even get taller. My melons are flowering and flowering, but no fruit. They were all planted out late May. The peppers sprouted indoors April 9th, and the melon on May 14th. The first picture is of dragon cayenne, the second is poblano, and the 3rd is melon.
