I have never grown cantaloupe's before what do I need to put in the soil to make them grow big?
Thanks Randy

I just treat them the same as pumpkins or watermelons. Have you done a soil test?

I treat mine the same as the watermelons which I try to mimic pumpkin growers, although I'm definately not a pumpkin grower. But you can split them. So I pour it to them but grow more than one per vine. I think you'll be ok growing it like a pumpkin.
