I have ten different varieties of melons. All have sprouted and soon I'll have to cull them out. I planted a mixed variety of Casaba, watermelon and cantaloupe which I will name after they grow a little bit more. My only concern are the bees that are so necessary for pollination or I'll have to do a lot of hand pollinating. As you can see I am an EB (earthbox) grower and have had excellent results with them. Can grow many more on far less space. There are three plants per EB for a total of thirty melon plants in a relatively small area. Will keep ya'll informed as we grow...
