Thanks to all the great growers who shared their seeds with me. I have room for 3 plants, thinking about joining the 150 square foot contest with one of these so the other two can have lots of room   Sunday, April 14 View Page Doing a couple of giant watermelons too, started these a couple weeks ago. Going to try to make sure I don’t kill them this year. I have a tendency to put them out in the cold too early   Thursday, May 9 View Page Finally got some of the plants in on Thursday. Pretty late to be getting them in, I’ve been laid up with nasty bronchitis for the last week. They’re kind of pale looking too so hopefully some hot weather shows up soon and I’ll have 7 foot mains by the weekend   Thursday, May 9 View Page 2140 Pritchard. And oh yeah that last one was the 2501 Bernstrom. I have them on a square of black plastic under my patented row cover enclosure. I haven’t gotten my 150 square foot plant in yet but hopefully in the next few days   Thursday, May 9 View Page Doing a couple giant watermelons again this year too. This is my only one in the ground so far, the 256 Bennett. Now this plant looks much happier! The last time I grew these two years ago they were already dead by this date so I’m glad I’m making improvements lol   Sunday, May 12 View Page That last post should say the watermelon is the 256 Brussel, not Bennett. I think a worm got into my brain, ate part of it and then died in there but I’m sure it’s fine. Maybe I’ll even be president someday
