First females on the melon plants opened today. Several more to open over the next couple days. None will be left for pollination until plant double their current size or more for some. Average distance out is around 6 feet. Recording female length, lobe count and if it's on the main or secondary. Will collect this data until plants grow together and fruit are set. So far everything has been 3 lobed, 19-24mm and a variety of diameters. One plant has produced 2 FAT ones compared to its sibling plants and on side vines to boot. The first one on its main should open tomorrow. Don't know if I'll learn a THING of importance this year but it sure is interesting to see the differences between families and sibblings.
