I'm new to cantelopes, does the fruit grow for only 45 days? Then how many days from planting to harvest?

We need close to an average up close to 1.5 lbs a day. That about 50% more than my average. Maybe vic can keep it up

Works good for lopes. not recommended for wives. That can be dangerous to your health.

Wives don't see the humor in tapes & scales ! LOL
Whats the difference between locking your dog in your car trunk and your wife in the car trunk ????
The dog will be happy to see you when you open it ! LOL
