I know you have mentioned night time temps staying too warm for the melons in our summers.... I'm afraid we are going to hit those temps with a prolonged heat spell in the next week or two. What is the critical temp you think? Anything we can do short of fans and misters? Thanks Dave D'

Put a shade table or shade hoop over each melon. Be sure to have all melons on racks to keep them off the ground and water your plants in the early part of the day. You might consider spraying with Purshade if the temps run over 100 during the day.
