With Watermelon babies....duh!
So apparently the fertilization treatments I administered were successful and we have three watermelons on their way. I'm super excited.
As you can see I've also made the move to vertical gardening. My cucumbers and watermelons were just taking up too much room. So I had Joe build be a couple of quick frames with some fencing stapled on and with some stakes I was able to train my vining fruits upward giving me a lot more room.
The only downfall is I worry about the watermelons falling off when they get too big. Of course a solution exists, found using my #1 gardening friend, Google. Watermelon hammocks!
What a great use for all those old nude hose I never wear.
I can't wait to sink my teeth into my juicy babies.

Good that you gave it support. They tend to be heavy as they grow.
